How to Make Heerlike Poeding
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, beat 2 large eggs with ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and ½ cup raisins (optional).
- Gradually add 1 cup milk, mixing until smooth.
- Pour batter into a 7-8 inch square or round, 3-4 inch deep, uncovered casserole dish.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the pudding bakes, prepare the syrup: In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup water, and 2 tablespoons butter.
- Bring the syrup to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
- Once the pudding is out of the oven, immediately pour the hot syrup evenly over the top.
- Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
