Vinegar Pudding
Delightfully old-fashioned and irresistibly comforting, Vinegar Pudding is a unique dessert that merges a soft, cake-like top with a rich, caramel-like sauce hidden beneath. Despite its intriguing name, the vinegar subtly enhances the pudding’s flavor, balancing the sweetness and adding a gentle tang that keeps you coming back for more. This simple recipe combines pantry staples like brown sugar, vanilla, and butter, along with a clever “magic” sauce made by layering boiling water over the batter before baking. Perfectly golden and bubbling out of the oven, this self-saucing pudding is best served warm, draped in its luscious sauce, and optionally topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Easy to prepare in under an hour, Vinegar Pudding is a nostalgic treat ideal for cozy family gatherings or a sweet, crowd-pleasing finish to dinner.

Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 g All-purpose flour
- 150 g Brown sugar
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 240 ml Milk
- 1 tbsp White vinegar
- 60 g Butter (melted)
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 300 ml Water (boiling)
- 100 g Brown sugar (for sauce)
- 30 g Butter (for sauce)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a medium-sized baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
In a separate bowl, mix the milk, white vinegar, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and whisk until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
In a separate bowl or measuring cup, combine the boiling water, additional brown sugar, and butter for the sauce. Stir until the sugar dissolves and butter melts.
Carefully pour the sauce mixture evenly over the batter in the baking dish. Do not stir.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding is set with a bubbling sauce beneath.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, spooning the sauce from the bottom over each portion. Optionally, top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
