Ingredients

500 ml maple syrup
500 ml heavy cream
175 g unsalted butter, at room temperature
175 g white sugar
0.25 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs, at room temperature
1 tsp baking powder
0.5 tsp fine salt
210 g all-purpose flour

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Grease a deep baking dish and place it on a baking sheet.
Step 2
In a deep saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the maple syrup and heavy cream to a boil. Once it starts to bubble, remove from heat, stir, and set aside.
Step 3
In a bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until creamy. Whisk in the vanilla extract and 1 egg until well combined. Add the other egg and mix. Sprinkle in the baking powder, salt, and flour. Mix until just combined.
Step 4
Transfer the batter to the prepared dish and pour the maple-cream sauce on top, leaving a 1.5 to 2.5 cm (1/2 to 1 inch) space from the top. Reserve any extra sauce.
Step 5
Bake in the center of the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, until the pudding is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving with any extra maple-cream sauce.
Step 6
Enjoy the decadent maple pudding!
