Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup Butter
  • ½ cup Sugar
  • ½ cup Flour
  • ¾ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla
  • ½ cup Jam

Instructions
 

  • Start oven heating to 175 C / 350 F / Gas Mark 4.
  • Put a kettle of water on to boil.
  • Butter four x 6 oz (¾ cup / 175 ml) pudding moulds or ovenproof dishes. You could also just use one large ovenproof or pudding dish that would hold about 24 oz (3 cups / 700 ml.)
  • Put 2 tablespoons of the jam in the bottom of each (or if using one large dish, dump it all in.)
  • Beat the rest of the ingredients in a bowl until smooth; pour into pudding dishes and level the surface with a knife or spatula.
  • Put the pudding dishes into a large ovenproof dish such as a casserole or roasting pan, and fill that dish or pan with 1 inch (2 to 3 cm) of boiling water. Place CAREFULLY into the oven. Or, place the dish in the oven first with the pudding dish/dishes in it, then pour the hot water in.
  • Cook until risen and golden, about 25 minutes.
  • Serve hot.

Notes

Instead of the flour, baking powder, and salt you can just use ½ cup (2 ½ oz / 70 g) self-raising flour.
