I love anything with lemon, and I've been eyeing this recipe in the Everyday Food since I got the book, and this morning I was in the mood to whip a few up!!
They are so easy to make, and yum (I just ate one for morning tea!)
Unsalted butter at room temperature for custard cups
3 large eggs, separated
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoon all purpose flour
2-3 tablespoons grated lemon zest
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 cup milk (I used skim)
1/4 teaspoon salt
Confectioners' sugar for dusting
Preheat the oven to 350F. Set a kettle of water to boil. Butter six 6-ounce custard cups, and place m in a roasting pan or baking dish lined with a kitchen towel (I sprayed the cups with Pam and I didn't use the towel and everything was fine - I took the risk of the cups sliding in the baking dish)
In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until the mixture is light; wish in the flour. Gradually whisk in the lemon zest and juice and whisk in the milk.
With an electric mixer, beat the egg whites and salt until soft peaks form. Add to the lemon mixture; gently fold in with a whisk (the batter will be thin)
Divide the batter among the prepared cups. Place the pan in the oven and fill with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the cups. Bake until the puddings are puffed and lightly browned. 20-25 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature, dusted with confectioners sugar.
Note: If you don't have individual custard cups, bake the batter in an 8-inch square baking dish(or other shallow 2-quart baking dish) for 30-35 minutes.

Lemon and custard, if something contains those two words it's gotta be good.

I've never done anything where you put water in a baking dish then add cups of things in the baking dish.I hope I do it right.

Might sound silly,but the butter,how much of it do you add?
Just re read it 🤦♀️
Made this...fantastic! But, used 1/4 cup sugar. Perfecto.
Made these, were delicious and so light. One thing I did wrong, didn’t beat the egg whites enough, for so had to get them
Really cold before eating for the custard to form . We all love lemon this is a keeper. Thanks
Can you make these chocolate? How?
To call this a "cake" is a misnomer. It's more like the old chiffon pie filling from the 1970s. It tastes pretty good, but the texture, for me, leaves a lot to be desired.
If you use a 2 quart baking dish, do you still need to do the water bath?
Please, will ramekins work with this delightful recipe? I would think it would, but I thought asking would be a good idea.
Thank u for your time.
This is heavenly! I made it as stated (spraying the cups, btw) EXCEPT I only used 1/4 cup sugar. PERFECT. Mmmmm!
I tried this recipe today and it's amazing come out just the way expected great recepy thanks.
Has anyone tried a non-dairy milk such as oatmilk?
You bake the cakes in a roasting pan filled with water and a wet towel in the bottom of the toaster?
I mean roaster. Spell check fail! A wet towel is in the bottom of the roaster?
This looks good. I wouldn’t use skim milk though, since this recipe is already pretty “lean.”
