How To Make Mini Ginger Puddings
- Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease 8 ramekins with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a medium sized bowl sift together flour and baking powder.
- Place butter and sugar into a large mixing bowl and beat using an electric hand mixer until pale and fluffy, then add in the eggs, honey, milk and water and mix until well combined.
- Fold in the flour mixture until just combined, then divide the batter between the prepared ramekins.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until the puddings are golden brown and skewer comes out clean, remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before transferring the puddings to serving plates or bowls.
- Meanwhile prepare the sauce, place all the ingredients for the sauce into a saucepan over medium to low heat.
- Allow this to cook for 5 minutes until the butter is melted and the sugar has dissolved, then increase the heat and bring to a boil, let the sauce simmer for another 5 minutes until thickened.
- Turn out pudding onto serving plates or bowls, pour over a generous amount of butterscotch sauce. Top with ice-cream, candied ginger and mint.
Heads up, guys, the step for adding ginger isn’t in the instructions. I almost completely skipped it and make a gingerless ginger pudding 😅
Besides that, it came out really well. Somehow my butterscotch pudding took much longer than the time allocated but that’s okay. I also didn’t have ramekins and ended up just putting everything in a big dish. I had to bake it for about 25 minutes more but it came out really well! 😊
