- 2
Blend the cottage cheese in a food processor for 1 minute until almost smooth.
- 3
Add the eggs, double cream, sugar, ground almonds, cornflour, almond extract and lemon zest and blend again until you have a thin, even batter.
- 4
Pour into the dish and bake for 55 minutes until set at the edges with a slight wobble in the centre and a golden top.
55 min - 5
Cool for 15 minutes. The pudding sinks slightly and that is right.
