Method

  1. 01

    Prepare the pan

    Grease a Bundt pan well with some of the butter. Preheat the oven to 177 °C.

    Temperature: 177 °C / 350.6 °F

    Ready to continue when: The pan has a thin coating of butter and the oven is hot.

    15 min
  2. 02

    Caramelize the sugar

    Put one of the two portions of sugar in a pan or saucepan and heat over high heat, stirring constantly, until liquid and deeply brown. Carefully add the water a little at a time, as it may splatter; whisk in the evaporated milk. Remove the mixture from the heat.

    Ready to continue when: The sugar has dissolved into a dark brown liquid and the evaporated milk is incorporated.

  3. 03

    Mix the dry ingredients

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt.

    Ready to continue when: The spices and other dry ingredients are evenly distributed through the flour.

  4. 04

    Make the batter

    In another bowl, beat the remaining butter with the other portion of sugar until creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix them in. Gradually add the flour mixture and caramel liquid in alternating batches, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

    Ready to continue when: The batter is smooth, with no visible streaks of flour or caramel liquid.

  5. 05

    Bake and cool

    Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and cover it tightly with foil. Bake at 177 °C for 60–75 minutes. Let cool before removing from the pan.

    Temperature: 177 °C / 350.6 °F

    Ready to continue when: The pudding is set and has cooled before being removed from the pan.
