Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 3 1/2 ounces butter, soft; 6 1/2 ounces superfine sugar; 3 eggs, largest size, beaten; 1 cup flour; 2 teaspoons baking powder (not soda); 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1 quart buttermilk (full fat or low fat); 2 teaspoons vanilla; 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, mixed with; 3 tablespoons sugar (keep in a little bowl)

Servings: persons

3 1/2 ounces butter, soft
6 1/2 ounces superfine sugar
3 eggs, largest size, beaten
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder (not soda)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 quart buttermilk (full fat or low fat)
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, mixed with
3 tablespoons sugar (keep in a little bowl)

1
Set oven at 350 deg F/180 deg Celsius.
2
Grease a fairly deep oven dish (about 9 x 9 x 3 inches, more or less): this is quite a large dessert.
3
Using an electric mixer, whisk butter a little until light and fluffy.
4
Add the sugar, and cream the two together well, until pale and creamy.
5
Add the beaten eggs in three batches, beating well after each addition: you want a pale, creamy mixture. Add the vanilla during this process.
6
Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl.
7
Add dry ingredients alternately with the buttermilk to the butter mixture, whisking lightly after each addition. Beat until you have a smooth batter.
8
Ladle into prepared greased oven dish.
9
Bake about 45 - 55 minutes, until the pudding is slightly puffy and golden on top. It will crack -- it's not a fault, this is a rustic dessert.
10
As it cools, it will sink slightly -- that's normal.
11
Take out of oven and strew over the cinnamon-sugar you have prepared.
12
Serve hot or lukewarm, as is, or with warm custard or ice-cream. It is also delicious with fruit syrups or maple syrup.
