Units
Scale
- 1.3 lb (600g) apples, cored and cut into 1/8ths (approx 3 large cooking apples)
- 1 cup (150g) self-raising flour (or gluten-free flour)
- 1/2 cup (100g) caster sugar
- 1/2 cup (125g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup (125ml) milk
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1/2 cup (100g) butterscotch chips
- 1/4 cup (60ml) water
- 1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 10-inch ovenproof baking dish.
- In a food processor, combine the self-raising flour, caster sugar, and butter. Pulse until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Add the egg, milk, and lemon zest to the mixture and blend until smooth.
- Arrange the sliced apples evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Pour the batter over the apples, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle the butterscotch chips over the top of the batter.
- In a small saucepan, combine the water, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves, then pour evenly over the pudding mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the sponge comes out clean.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with custard or ice cream.
Notes
You can substitute gluten-free flour for a gluten-free version. Serve with custard or ice cream for a comforting dessert. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat before serving.
