Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated orange peel
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup good quality orange marmalade

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Using a pastry brush, coat the bottom and sides of a loaf pan with 1 tbsp of the softened butter. Sift the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt into a small bowl and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream the remaining 4 tbsp of butter and sugar together. Add the eggs and mix well. Add the flour mixture, orange peel, vanilla, milk and water and stir until the batter is smooth.
  • Stirring constantly, melt the marmalade over low heat in a small pan; then pour it into the loaf pan. Pour in the batter, and bake in the middle of the oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Cool the pudding in the pan for 10 minutes. Run a knife along the outside edge of the pan and invert onto a serving platter. Serve warm.
