Instructions

Stay Awake

1 Preheat oven to 200°C. Blend flour, salt, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and milk in a blender or processor. Process for 1 minute or until mixture becomes a smooth batter. Or mix batter by hand: place flour, salt, eggs, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon in a large bowl and beat with a wooden spoon until smooth. Add milk, half at a time, beating well.

2 Leave batter to rest and prepare fruit. Place apricots in a lightly greased ovenproof dish or small dishes. Pour over batter and cook large pudding for 25-30 minutes until batter has puffed up. Small puddings need about 20 minutes.

3 Serve immediately with a sprinkling of icing sugar.
