Ingredients:
- 3 cups fresh blackberries (450g)
- ½ cup granulated sugar (100g)
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (8g)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice (15ml)
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened (115g)
- ¾ cup granulated sugar (150g)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (190g)
- 1 tsp baking powder (5g)
- ½ cup whole milk (120ml)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (5ml)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9 inch baking dish thoroughly with butter.
- In a medium bowl, toss the blackberries with 100g granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice.
- Spread the blackberry mixture evenly across the bottom of the baking dish.
- Cream the softened butter and 150g granulated sugar together using a hand mixer until pale and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, mixing until just combined.
- Gently spoon the batter over the blackberries and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 50–55 minutes until the top is mahogany-colored and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the pudding rest for 10 minutes before serving to allow the fruit juices to set.
