Was watching a food program and they mentioned Southern Hot Milk Cake??? I looked it up and with my recent coincidence with scalded flour discussion decided to make one.

I, slightly, modified the recipe found here. Modifications are italicized. I opted for a salted caramel sauce topping. 😋

Ingredients:
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 stick of butter
  • Nutmeg or cinnamon to taste
Method:
Preheat oven to 350 °F/175 °C

Combine the milk and butter in a pot and heat until the butter is melted. I brought mine to a simmer and remove from the heat. Combine remaining ingredients and *slowly* sir in the milk/butter mixture.

Original recipe says bake like a cake but I baked mine in a graham cracker crust. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, around 35 minutes.

How was it? I like the look of that and it could potentially work well with plant milk
 
Since we don't have self-rising flour where I live, and if my calculations and the told standard is correct 2½ cups self-rising flour would be equivalent of about:
300g of flour
3.75 teaspoons or 18-22g of baking powder
½ teaspoon of salt.
