LEMON BUTTERMILK PUDDING CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Beat the egg whites and when soft peaks begin to form, gradually beat in about half the sugar and set aside.
• (Tip: If using an electric mixer, use the lowest speed possible; high speeds break down the egg protein and don't get job done much faster.) In a separate bowl, beat yolk and butter; gradually add the remaining sugar and when well combined add the remaining ingredients, beating until smooth.
• Fold the egg whites into the cake mixture with a whisk or spatula, and pour into a non reactive 8x8 baking pan that has been sprayed or buttered.
• Set the pan with the cake in a larger pan; pour hot water in the larger pan half way up the sides of the cake pan and carefully place in the oven.
• Bake for 45 minutes until top is lightly browned.

LEMON PUDDING CAKE WITH FRESH MIXED BERRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Butter and lightly sugar 4 ramekins (about 1-cup size).
• In a mixer, add egg yolks, buttermilk, lemon juice and lemon zest and beat until well combined. Reduce the speed to low and sift in flour, sugar and salt. Continue to mix until combined. Beat egg whites until you get stiff peaks then combine the 2 mixtures by gently folding them together, a little at a time. Divide evenly amongst ramekins then bake in a water bath - set ramekins in a roasting tray and fill with water halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
• Bake for 45 minutes until the top springs back when gently pressed and the cakes have a nice golden brown color. Allow to cool slightly, then carefully invert onto a plate. Serve with fresh berries and dust with powdered sugar.

LEMON BUTTERMILK PUDDING CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, 1/2 cup of the sugar, the egg yolks, lemon juice, flour, butter, lemon zest, vanilla and salt until smooth.
• In a clean glass or stainless steel bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form; continue beating, gradually adding the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, until the mixture is thick and glossy and holds stiff peaks. Gently fold the whites into the buttermilk mixture and scrape into an 8"x8" or 9"x9" pan that has been sprayed with nonstick spray.
• Set the pan into a larger pan and pour enough hot water into the larger pan to come halfway up the sides of the inner pan. Bake for about 45 minutes, until the cake is puffed and golden, and the top is springy to the touch.
• Remove the cake from the water bath and cool for at least half an hour if you want to serve it warm, or cool it completely and then chill in the refrigerator before serving in shallow bowls, with a spoon.
