Malva pudding is a comforting South African dessert: a sponge cake made with apricot jam and moistened with a warm creamy syrup. Served warm, it is known for a lightly crusted exterior and a moist interior.
Mix the flour, sugar, and baking powder. Add the egg, apricot jam, melted butter, and milk, then mix until smooth.
Pour into a greased pan and bake in a preheated 180°C / 355°F oven for 30–35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Bring the cream, butter, and sugar to a boil over medium heat. Cook for 5 minutes.
Slowly pour the hot syrup over the hot cake and let it soak in for 10 minutes.
Serve warm.
Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for 3 days. Gently warm in the oven before serving.
