How to Make Baba's 1 2 Hour Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large casserole dish, whisk together 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (or whole wheat), 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon baking soda.
  3. Gradually add 2 cups milk (dairy, soy, almond, or low-fat), stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup water, ½ cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg (or cinnamon).
  5. Gently pour the water mixture over the batter in the casserole dish. Avoid stirring.
  6. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. The cake will rise above the sauce.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
