Description

Ingredients

• Sauce
• 4 tablespoons (55 g) unsalted butter
• ½ vanilla bean, split lengthwise and scraped
• ½ cup (120 ml) maple syrup (preferably dark)
• ¼ cup (60 ml) brewed coffee
• Puddings
• ½ cup (50 g) chestnut flour (preferably a mild brand such as Ladd Hill Orchards)
• ¼ cup (35 g) sweet white rice flour
• ¼ cup (25 g) GF oat flour
• 2 teaspoons (9 g) baking powder
• ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
• 2 large eggs
• ⅓ cup (80 ml) well-shaken, low-fat buttermilk
• ⅓ cup (80 ml) maple syrup (preferably dark)
• 2 tablespoons (30 ml) mild vegetable oil, such as sunflower
• powdered sugar for sprinkling (optional)
• whipped cream, lightly sweetened with a drop of maple syrup and vanilla extract, for serving (optional)

Directions

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350ºF (175ºC). Place 8 (4-ounce) oven-proof ramekins or canning jars on a baking sheet and spray them lightly with cooking oil (or brush with a bit of melted butter).
• Place the butter and vanilla pod and scrapings in a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, swirling occasionally. After about 3-5 minutes, the butter will foam up, turn golden and smell nutty, with brown flecks mingling with black vanilla bean seeds on the bottom of the pan. At this point, remove the pan from the heat, carefully pour in the maple syrup and coffee, transfer to a measuring pitcher, and set aside.
• To make the batter, sift together the chestnut, sweet rice and oat flours with the baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Make a well in the flour mixture, and add the eggs, buttermilk, maple syrup and oil. Whisk until well-combined.
• Pour or scoop the batter into the ramekins, dividing it evenly. Give the sauce a good stir to combine (the butter wont want to emulsify, so youll want to stir, pour, stir, pour...) and pour it over the batter, dividing it evenly; it will pour through the batter, which is fine.
• Bake the puddings until puffed and golden, with bubbling sauce beneath the cakey bits, 18-22 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool at least 15 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if you like. Serve the puddings warm, passing whipped cream at the table. The puddings are best when freshly baked, but they keep well, refrigerated airtight, for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350ºF oven until warm for best results.
