CARAMEL CUSTARD PUDDING CAKE
| ULTIMATE RECIPE
Caramel Custard Pudding Cake – This caramel pudding cake is such a amazing dessert if you wanted something less filling and less gluten, this cake serves the purpose. I love how jiggly the pudding is with the caramel sauce and tiny bit of cake texture to go with. I’ve made the egg version twice now, but I’ve never tried the eggless version and I wonder how to make it the same way as the egg version, that is with the cake layer at the bottom. Eggless cake batter just won’t float the same way as the egg version. Hence, the one way you can make is bake the cake separately. I thought I wanted to bake the cake in the oven, but since the pudding is non oven, so I decided to try cook the cake on the pan to make it non oven baked instead. I hope you’re inspired to give it a try in at least one of the version. Enjoy!
