You've heard of cake in a mug? The infamous yummy 5-minute cake made in mug in the microwave, single serving of deliciousness? No? It's delicious. You should try it.
This isn't a traditional recipe for Pouding Chomeur either. Sally says this is more like bread pudding, because of the addition of fruit, but she admits the texture is more like cake than bread. Technically, in pouding chomeur, one would leave the brown sugar sauce on top of the batter instead of stirring it in like I suggested. But when baking in the oven, there's more time for the sugar to seep into the cake - here it only has 3 minutes, so I decided to help it along.
Pouding Chomeur (in a mug)
adapted from here, advice taken from here
serves: 1!
Ingredients
1/2 tbs. butter
1 tbs. sugar
1/4 egg (I know, it's silly, use the other 3/4 to make some scrambled eggs... or more cake in a mug)
drop of vanilla
3 tbs. flour (divided)
1 tbs. milk
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 apple, peeled, chopped
10-12 raisins
2 tbs. brown sugar
2 tbs. water
Directions
1. Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature! Then, in a microwave-safe mug, cream the butter and sugar together until fluffy. Add in the egg, beat again until well combined. Add the drop of vanilla.
2. Add 2 tbs. of flour, stir into the egg mixture. Add the milk and stir again. Pile on the remaining 1 tbs of flour, baking powder, and cinnamon on top of the batter. Stir it all together until smooth. Add the apples raisins and stir once or twice.
3. Mix the brown sugar and water in a separate small bowl, microwave 30 seconds until bubbling. Pour on top of the batter and stir once. Microwave the mug for 3 minutes, watching carefully. The cake is done when it bubbles up.
