Half-hour Pudding Cake (Montreal Pudding)

My Mom used to make this and I still make this pudding-like cake. During the baking the batter rises to the top and a pudding like sauce forms underneath the crust. There is also a lemon version.

Step: 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter one 2 quart casserole dish.

Sift the flour, white sugar and baking powder together. Add the raisins and stir in the milk. Spoon batter into the prepared dish.

Step: 3

Step: 4

Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes. Serve warm.
