Maple Walnut Pudding Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and 1 teaspoon salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, butter and egg. Stir the wet mixture into the dry; the batter will be thick.
• Heat a 9-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the cream and maple syrup and whisk to combine. Bring to a low simmer and add a pinch of salt. Turn off the heat. Use a soup spoon to drop the cake batter onto the maple syrup mixture.
• Bake until the cake is set, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Line bottoms of 3 greased 9-in. round baking pans with parchment; grease parchment., Cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in maple flavoring. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating after each addition., Transfer to prepared pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 11-13 minutes. Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing to wire racks; remove paper. Cool completely., For candied walnuts, in a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat; saute walnuts until toasted, about 5 minutes. Stir in maple syrup and salt; cook and stir 1 minute. Spread onto foil; cool completely., For frosting, beat butter until creamy. Beat in maple flavoring and salt. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar and enough cream to reach desired consistency., Place 1 cake layer on a serving plate; spread with 1 cup frosting. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup candied walnuts and drizzle with 1 tablespoon maple syrup. Repeat layers., Top with remaining layer. Frost top and sides of cake. Top with remaining walnuts and syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter a 2 quart casserole dish.
• Mix all ingredients together except walnuts and hot water.
• Pour mixture into the prepared casserole dish.
• Sprinkle walnuts on top.
• Pour hot water over all.
• Bake for 35 minutes or until a cake tester or tooth pick inserted in the center of the upper part (the cake part of the pudding) comes out clean.

Steps:

• Make the frosting: Whisk the egg whites and maple sugar in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) until the mixture is warm and the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove the bowl from the pan and beat with a mixer on high speed until stiff, shiny peaks form, about 5 minutes. Beat in the butter a few pieces at a time, then continue beating until smooth. (Don't worry if the mixture looks separated at first; keep beating and it will come together.) Beat in the maple extract.
• Assemble the cake: Poke holes all over the tops of the 2 cake layers using a toothpick. Spoon the reserved walnut syrup over the cakes, letting it soak into the holes.
• Coarsely chop the walnuts. Transfer 1 cup frosting to a medium bowl; fold in the chopped nuts. Put 1 cake layer on a platter and spread the walnut frosting on top. Top with the second cake layer. Cover the whole cake with the remaining maple frosting. Decorate with more walnuts.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter two 9-inch-round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper; butter the parchment and dust the pans with flour, tapping out the excess.
• Whisk 3 cups flour, the baking powder and salt in a bowl until combined. Beat 2 sticks butter and the sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to medium; beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl as needed. Beat in the vanilla. (The mixture may look separated at this point.)
• Mix 1/2 cup water with the cream in a liquid measuring cup or bowl. Beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the cream mixture, beginning and ending with flour, until just smooth.
• Divide the batter between the prepared pans. Bake until the cakes are lightly golden on top and the centers spring back when pressed, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edge of the pans and turn the cakes out onto the racks to cool completely. Remove the parchment. Trim the tops of the cakes with a long serrated knife to make them level, if desired.

Steps:

• In mixer bowl cream butter and sugars until fluffy.
• In another bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt.
• In measuring cup combine milk and maple flavoring, and beat into butter mixture alternatively with flour mixture.
• Beat in eggs 1 at a time.
• Mix in 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts.
• Turn into greased 9 or 10 inch tube pan and bake in lower third of 300-degree oven 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, just until pick inserted into center comes out clean.
• Cool in pan 15 minutes, then turn out onto rack to cool completely.
• Drizzle with maple glaze and garnish with walnuts.
• Maple Glaze:
• In a small bowl mix 1 cup sifted powdered sugar with 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons
• Milk to make a glaze of thick pouring consistency. Stir in 1/2 teaspoons maple flavoring.

Steps:

• Make the cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat two 9-inch round cake pans (2 inches deep) with cooking spray. Line bottoms with parchment paper; lightly coat parchment with cooking spray. Flour parchment and sides (tapping out excess); set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar on high until light and fluffy, 5 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, scraping down bowl as needed. With mixer on medium-high, add maple syrup in a slow, steady stream. Add flour mixture in 2 additions, alternating with milk, beating well after each addition and scraping down bowl as needed. Fold in walnuts.
• Divide batter between pans; firmly tap pans on a flat surface several times to remove air bubbles. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of a cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cakes cool in pans on wire racks, 15 minutes, then invert onto racks; peel off parchment. Invert cakes again and let cool completely on racks. With a serrated knife, trim domed top from each cake to make a flat surface.
• Make frosting: In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese, butter, and brown sugar on high until light and fluffy, 5 minutes. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Assemble cake: Place one layer, top side up, on a cake stand or serving plate. Spread top evenly with 1 1/2 cups frosting. Top with second layer, top side down. Spread remaining frosting over top and around sides of cake.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan (off heat), whisk egg yolks with cornstarch and salt until smooth. Gradually whisk in milk, then pure maple syrup.
• While whisking, bring to a boil over medium heat; boil 1 minute. Off heat, stir in unsalted butter.
• Transfer to a medium bowl (strain, if lumpy). Press plastic wrap on surface of pudding; refrigerate at least 3 hours.
• Spoon into dishes; drizzle with more maple syrup or Maple-Walnut Sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325.
• In a small bowl, add dates and boiling water - set aside and cool to room temperature.
• In a food processor, add he flours, 2/3 cup walnuts, baking soda and salt - process until the walnuts are completely ground. Scoop the mixture out into a medium bowl.
• Add the cooled date and water mixture into the food processor - process until smooth, scraping down the sides once or twice. Add egg, 3/4 cup maple syrup, oil, butter, 2 teaspoons vinegar and vanilla - continue to process until smooth. Pour the date mixture into the dry ingredients; stir just until combined. Scoop the batter into a 10" round springform pan lightly coated with nonstick spray.
• Bake until a toothpick placed in the center comes out mostly clean, with a few moist crumbs attached (about 28 to 35 minutes). Use a thin sharp knife to run around the edges before removing the side of the springform pan. Remove cake from pan and place on a wire rack to cool completely.
• To make the topping, whisk together 2 tablespoons maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vinegar and confectioners' sugar until smooth; if the mixture is too thick to spread nicely, add a teaspoon or two of water. Pour the topping onto the cake; use an off-set spatula to spread the mixture over the top of the cake. Scatter the top with the remaining toasted walnuts.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together into a large bowl.
• Make a well in the dry ingredients; place water, oil, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and maple extract into the well. Stir together with a wooden spoon, then beat until batter is smooth; stir in walnuts.
• Place egg whites in a large glass or metal bowl. Sprinkle egg whites with cream of tartar; beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks.
• Use a rubber spatula or wire whisk to fold 1/4 the beaten egg whites into the batter. Gently run the spatula through the center of the bowl, then around the sides of the bowl, repeating until fully incorporated; repeat folding with remaining egg whites, 1/4 at a time, folding just until incorporated. Turn the batter into an ungreased 9- or 10-inch tube pan. Cut through the batter with a knife to eliminate large air bubbles.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cake is golden, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Tip the pan upside down over a wire rack to cool, about 30 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of pan to remove the cake; cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Beat instant pudding and milk together in a bowl; fold in whipped cream. Spread over cake.
