Gingery Goodness!

With a craving for a sweet yummy treat I attempted to make a Delicious ginger pudding the other night. This was a fantastic success with the help of my little girl we created a amazing pudding dough, which she began to enjoy just as it was. So quickly I whisked it away into the oven to cook.

Inspired by Donna Hay's

75g butter
2/3 cup golden syrup
2 eggs
1 1/3 cup plain flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
1/2 cup finely chopped glacé ginger

Variation (as I didn't have all ingredients this is what I used)

75g butter
2/3 cup golden syrup
1/3 cup wild flower Tasmanian honey
1 1/3 S.R flour
2 1/2 teaspoons of ginger powder (this could of been more best to taste dough to see if its to your liking)

Method
1. Pre heat oven 180ºC grease pudding tin

2. Using electric mixer combined butter syrup and honey till light and well combined. approx 5 minutes ( or in my case just mix well by hand.) adding eggs one at a time.

3. Combined wet and dry ingredients and spoon evenly into tin. Place Pudding tin in a deep tray and pour into the deep tray enough water to come up half way up the side of tin.

4. Cook for 30mins should spring back when gentle touch the top. serve with Ice cream and maple syrup.
