Steamed puddings are a delicious dessert to make, in this video I show you how to make a steamed pudding in the oven. This is a great alternative if you do not like to use the stove top or a steamer.

The oven you use can be a steam or non steam oven.

Ingredients for oven steamed pudding

2 large eggs (140 grams)

180 grams self raising flour

130 grams sugar

100 g butter

40 ml oil

3 tbsp jam, you may add more if you like

Method for oven steamed pudding

Pre-heat oven to 175 Celsius

Put the jam in a 1 litre oven safe pudding basin, I used a pyrex glass bowl then put it to the side

Put the butter, oil and sugar in a bowl, whisk together until creamy

Add the eggs one at a time and whisk well between each egg added

Add in the flour and fold it in until smooth, if too thick loosen the mixture with about a tablespoon or two of milk

Spoon the cake mixture into the bowl with the jam, level the top

Bake in the oven for about 45-50mins until slightly golden brown on top and springy to the touch. Test with a toothpick inserted into the cake, if it comes out clean it is ready.

Wait for about 10 minutes and carefully flip it onto a plate, with oven gloves and serve. It will still be very hot

Great on its own or with custard or ice cream
