Upside Down Marmalade Pudding
1 large orange
2 tablespoons marmalade
15g butter plus extra for greasing
100g soft margarine
100g caster sugar
100g self raising flour
2 eggs
To serve: custard, cream or ice cream
-
Set the oven to 190/375F/gas mark 5. Grease a 1 litre pie dish or pudding bowl.
-
Grate the zest from the orange and then use a sharp knife to remove the skin and all the pith. Catch the juice in a mixing bowl. Thinly slice the orange into circles and arrange in a pattern on the bottom of the greased dish.
-
Put the marmalade and butter into a small pan with a tablespoon of water. Heat until bubbling. Pour over the oranges.
-
Put the orange zest into the bowl with the juice. Add the margarine, sugar, flour and eggs and beat until light and fluffy.
-
Carefully spread the mixture on top of the oranges smoothing the edges so that the marmalade does not rise up. Bake for 20 – 30 minutes. The top will be golden brown and feel ‘springy’ when cooked.
To serve the pudding: carefully turn it upside down onto a plate.
