Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Maple Sponge Pudding Cake


cakes, desserts, puddings

1 unsalted butter; softened
3/4 cup sugar
2 cup flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 cup milk
1/2 cup unsalted butter; melt/cool
1 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 creme fraiche

Canadian food writer Anita Stewart shared this recipe that she gathered at L'Escapade, an inn at Mont Tremblant, Quebec. With a few modifications, it has become one of my standby quick-and-easy desserts. The sauce poured over the top ends up on the bottom. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart glass casserole or other baking dish. In a bowl, combine the sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt and stir to mix well. Whisk in the milk and 1/4 cup of the butter to blend well. Scrape the fairly stiff batter into the prepared baking dish. In a saucepan, bring the syrup to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining 1/4 cup butter and the vanilla. Immediately pour the mixture over the pudding batter. Bake until puffy, bubbling, and golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes. Serve warm. Offer creme fraiche or a pitcher of cream for topping the pudding at the table. Source: James McNair's Custards, Mousses, & Puddings
