Creamy Radio Pudding
This Creamy Radio Pudding is like a warm hug in dessert form. It’s got this soft, golden cake on top, and beneath it, there’s a rich, caramel-like sauce that bubbles up as it bakes. The best part? You don’t need anything fancy—just some pantry staples like flour, sugar, and butter. It’s perfect for cozy nights when you want something sweet but not too fussy. Serve it warm, and I guarantee everyone will be going back for seconds (or thirds!).
6 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
- 1/2 c granulated sugar
- 1/2 c milk
- 1/2 c raisins
- 1 heaping tbsp baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1/4 tsp salt
For the sauce:
- 1 c brown sugar
- 2 c boiling water
- 1 tbsp butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and let's get started on that delicious sauce.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, boiling water, and butter. Bring the mixture to a boil, and let it bubble away for about 2 minutes—just long enough for everything to blend into a rich, sweet sauce.
- Once it’s ready, carefully pour the sauce into a 9-inch square baking dish, making sure it’s spread evenly across the bottom.
- Now, for the batter. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, milk, raisins, baking powder, egg, and salt until everything is well combined. Take big spoonfuls of the batter and drop them right into the sauce.
- Pop the dish in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top is a beautiful golden brown.
Notes
If you want to make this gluten-free, it’s pretty easy! Just swap out the all-purpose flour for a gluten-free flour blend—make sure it’s a one-to-one replacement blend designed for baking. The rest of the ingredients are naturally gluten-free, so no other changes are needed. You’ll still get that same delicious cake on top with the gooey caramel sauce underneath, and no one will even notice the difference!
