Welcome to the recipe introduction, explaining the history and origin of Pouding Chomeur.

Gather ingredients: 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 cup salted butter, 2/3 cup white sugar, 1 egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla paste, 1/2 cup whole milk.

Prepare a greased 9x9 baking dish for the batter.

In a mixer, cream together 1/4 cup salted butter and 2/3 cup white sugar until light and fluffy.

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder.

Add 1 egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla paste, and 1/2 cup whole milk to the creamed mixture, mixing until combined.

Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, one spoonful at a time, mixing until thick and resembling buttercream frosting.

Spread the thick batter evenly into the greased 9x9 baking dish.

In a saucepan, combine 1 cup maple syrup, 1 cup brown sugar, 1 cup water, 1/4 cup butter, and 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream.

Bring the sauce mixture to a boil, stirring until combined.

Pour the hot sauce over the batter in the baking dish without stirring.

Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out clean, approximately 30-35 minutes.

Let cool slightly before serving.
