- Drop the cake batter directly into the sauce and slide back the dish in your Forno Venetzia oven.
- Keep an eye on the cake! As soon as its starting to grill on top, cover either with a cover or aluminum foil. Turn the dish every 10 minutes. After about 25 minutes, check for doneness by entering a toothpick in the cake batter. If it comes out clean, the pudding is ready. Cook time may vary!
