    Treacle Steamed Pudding

    This is one of the classic pudding recipe. It is so good, when i say it is good then it is wonderful. I am not a big cake eater, but this one is total different it is delicious very caramel and tasty. I am sure it taste amazing with custard sauce. This pudding is just so moist and decadent.

    Treacle refers to un crystallized dark syrup, often known as dark or blackstrap molasses in other parts of the world. It's used to give sticky toffee pudding, ginger cakes, fruit cakes, and desserts a rich, caramel flavour. The dish was mass-produced and shipped into the United States, where it was sold to consumers as a canned food that could be microwaved. It's a steamed pudding with treacle baked on top and occasionally poured on top. Despite its name, treacle sponge is more commonly made using golden syrup.

    Ingredients for Treacle Sponge Pudding

    Golden Syrup 

    Golden syrup is a common sweetener used in baked products, sweets, frostings, jams, and jellies, among other things. Cookies, rice crispies, caramel snack mixes, nutritional bars, ice creams, and sorbets can all be made with golden syrup. It's used in a lot of chocolates, fudges, cakes, and biscuits.

    Self-rising flour 

    Self-rising flour already contains baking powder and a little amount of salt. It's a common ingredient in many Southern dishes, and it's usually produced from a softer, lower-protein variety of all-purpose flour that grows in the region.

    Baking Powder 

    It raises the volume of baked foods and lightens their texture. It's a typical cooking component thats used as a raising agent in cakes, breads, and biscuits.

    This taste amazing with
    Butterscotch Sauce
    Caramel Sauce
    Custard Sauce

    Tips

    1. If you need to reheat the pudding, you do it in the microwave.
    2. If you don't have self rising flour, it is easy to make. Check this link Or use 1 ½ cup of plain flour (maida) and add in a total of 2.5 tsp of baking powder and ¼ tsp of salt to the recipe.
