Since I registered at Williams Sonoma (best decision ever) for my wedding and practically my entire kitchen/cooking set is from there, I am their forever loyal customer and friend. This includes stalking their website for recipes (besides 3 of their cookbooks that I already own) because they are always superb.
Try these amazing little treats, I promise they will be your new favorite! And they don't have butter! As for sugar.. well, eveything tastes better with it right?
What I like about it is they're light but definitely fulfilling, and you usually have the ingredients in your fridge. Enjoy!
Ingredients: 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 tsp. salt 3 eggs, separated 1 cup sugar 1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 large lemons) 1 1/3 cups milk
Directions: -Preheat an oven to 350°F.
-Place eight 1/2-cup ramekins in a large baking dish and pour in water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
-In a small bowl, stir together the flour and salt.
In a separate nonreactive bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the egg yolks with 3/4 cup of the sugar on medium speed until pale and thick, about 3 minutes.
-Stir in the flour mixture and beat until very thick, 2 minutes more. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice and milk.
-Using an electric mixer on high speed, whip the egg whites until foamy. Sprinkle in the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and whip until soft peaks form when the beaters are lifted.
-Using a silicone spatula, stir one-fourth of the egg whites into the lemon mixture. Gently fold in the rest just until no streaks of egg white are visible.
-Divide the mixture evenly among the ramekins. Bake until the centers are firm to the touch and the edges pull away slightly from the sides of the ramekins, 40 to 45 minutes.
-Remove from the oven but leave the ramekins in the water bath for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve the pudding cakes warm or at room temperature straight from the ramekins. Serves 8.
Ta-da!
