Pouding Chomeur

Pouding Chomeur

Though it translates to ‘unemployed man’s pudding,’ pouding chomeur isn’t cheap to make. The good news is you don’t really need to eat this more than a few times a year anyway. It’s the perfect dessert to pair with summer fruit or vanilla ice cream. If you use a bigger baking dish than I did, and pour over all the maple cream syrup, your cake should float over a pool of what will eventually be your sauce. If you just use a deep pie dish like I did, then just serve the extra sauce on the side.

Ingredients

For the Syrup

  • 2 cups maple syrup
  • 2 cups heavy cream

For the Batter

  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon fine salt
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Butter a deep baking dish and place it on a sheet pan.

Step 2
Bring maple syrup and heavy cream to a boil in a deep saucepan over medium-high heat. Turn off heat once mixture starts to bubble, stir, and set aside.

Step 3
Beat butter and sugar together in a bowl using a spatula or electric mixer until creamy and well combined. Whisk in vanilla extract and 1 egg until incorporated. Mix in the other egg. Sprinkle in baking powder, salt, and flour. Mix with a spatula until batter is just combined.

Step 4
Transfer batter to the prepared dish and pour the maple-cream sauce on top, stopping between 1/2 to 1-inch from the top of the dish. Reserve any extra sauce.

Step 5
Bake in the center of the preheated oven until pudding is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean, about 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes; serve pudding with any extra maple-cream sauce.

Chef’s Notes:

I ended up with plenty of extra sauce, so feel free to reduce the maple syrup and cream amounts.
