Recipe by Curtis Stone The double dose of lemon in these simple, delicious British puddings gives them an extra hit of delicious tangy flavor.

Ingredients

2 1/4 c. heavy cream
2/3 c. sugar
2 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
1/2 c. lemon juice
kosher salt

Instructions

Make the pudding: In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and sugar and cook over moderate heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until hot and the sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly, then whisk in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and a generous pinch of salt. Pour the pudding into six 5- to 6-ounce glasses or ramekins; cover tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the puddings until well-chilled and set, at least 6 hours or overnight.
Meanwhile, cook the compote: In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and water and cook over moderate heat, swirling the pan until the sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook, brushing down the side of the pan with a wet pastry brush, until an amber caramel forms, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the apples, orange juice, and the vanilla bean and seeds; the caramel will harden, but it will melt again. Cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until the apples are crisp-tender and coated in a light caramel, about 8 minutes; discard the vanilla bean. Stir in the Calvados, lemon juice, orange zest, and a pinch of salt. Let cool completely, then refrigerate until chilled.
Serve the puddings topped with the apple compote. Looking for more dessert ideas? Check out our homemade chocolate chip cookie recipes, apple pie recipes, and chocolate cake recipes.
