Saucy lemon pudding

Ingredients

1 cup	Flour
½ cup	Sugar
2 tsp	Baking powder
1	Lemon
1 pinch	Salt
½ cup	Milk
2 Tbsp	Canola oil

Lemon sauce

¾ cup	Sugar
1 ¼ cups	Water
1	Lemon

Directions

1. Place batter ingredients (flour, baking powder, sugar, finely grated zest of 1 lemon, salt, milk, canola oil) in a bowl and beat gently to combine. Transfer to the greased bowl of a slow cooker.
2. Make sauce by stirring boiling water, lemon juice of a lemon and sugar together in a bowl. Pour this liquid carefully over the batter.
3. Place five paper kitchen towels between the top of the slow cooker and its lid. Cook on high for two hours. The sponge pudding will rise to the top and a lemon syrup sauce will develop underneath. Serve hot with yoghurt or cream on the side.
