How to make GF lemon pudding cake

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Lightly grease individual ramekins.

In a large/medium bowl beat the egg yolks with an electric mixer. Add the white granulated sugar, milk, cornstarch, lemon juice, lemon zest, and salt, and beat until well incorporated.

In a medium bowl beat the egg whites until soft peaks. Incorporate the egg whites into the yolk mixture with a rubber spatula and involving movements until incorporated.

Fill the ramekins and place them on a baking sheet. Fill the baking sheet with water up to 1 centimeter.

Bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Keep in mind that all ovens are different.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve immediately with fresh fruits or whipped cream.

Storing

It’s always best to eat it warm at the moment. But if there is any leftover, store it covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and warm it before eating it.

Serving options

  • Whipped cream: Once you take the dessert out of the oven, place a scoop of whipped cream on it and serve it immediately.
  • Fruits: you can top the dessert with sliced fresh fruits, like strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, plums, and so on.
  • Cookie: GF cookie to scoop out the dessert.
