Instructions:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F). Grease a large ovenproof baking dish generously.
• Using a Kitchen Aid Artisan Stand Mixer with a coated flat beater attachment or any handheld mixer, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add the flour, vinegar, apricot jam, bicarbonate of soda, and baking powder to the egg-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
• Pour in the milk and continue mixing until you achieve a smooth batter.
  
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into the centre comes out clean.
• While the sponge is baking, prepare the sauce by combining all sauce ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring continuously until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat.
• Once the sponge is baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Slowly pour the hot sauce over, covering every part to avoid dry spots. Allow the sponge to soak up the sauce.
• Serve your Malva Pudding warm, accompanied by Ultra Mel custard, fresh cream, or vanilla ice cream.
