How to Make Lemony Rhubarb Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, and ½ tsp salt.
  3. Gently fold in 4 cups chopped rhubarb (about 1 lb).
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 1 large egg, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until just combined.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
  7. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter, and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar and butter are completely dissolved.
  8. Reduce heat to low and stir in 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp lemon zest, and ¼ tsp ground nutmeg.
  9. Carefully pour the lemon sauce evenly over the batter in the baking dish.
  10. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the pudding is golden brown.
