This easy recipe requires just a few ingredients and can be prepared in a matter of minutes using a microwave. Perfect for those who crave a sweet treat without the hassle of traditional baking.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Measure out all the ingredients as listed above.
- Ensure the eggs are at room temperature for a smoother mix.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the 1/3 cup of self-raising flour and 1 cup of sugar. Stir until evenly mixed.
- Create a well in the center of your dry ingredients and pour in the 1/2 cup of coconut milk, 2 eggs, and 1/3 cup of lime juice.
- Whisk the mixture together until it is smooth and all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Lightly grease your microwave-safe pudding molds or ramekins with butter or a non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
5. Fill Molds:
- Evenly distribute the batter among your prepared molds or ramekins. Fill them about 2/3 of the way full to allow space for the puddings to rise.
- Place the molds into the microwave. If your microwave does not have individualized molds, you may need to cook the puddings in batches.
- Microwave each pudding on high for about 2-3 minutes. Cooking times may vary depending on your microwave's power. You’ll know the puddings are ready when they have risen and are firm to the touch. Insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the puddings are done.
- Carefully remove the puddings from the microwave (they will be hot). Let them cool for a few minutes in their molds.
- Once slightly cooled, you can serve the puddings directly in their molds or carefully turn them out onto a plate. Optionally, garnish with lime zest, a drizzle of coconut milk, or a sprinkle of shredded coconut.
Tips:
- Ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter.
- Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor, but bottled juice can be a convenient substitute.
- Lightly grease the microwave-safe mugs or bowls to prevent sticking.
- For extra coconut flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of shredded coconut to the batter.
- Check the puddings after one minute of microwaving and then in 30-second intervals to avoid overcooking.
- Let the puddings cool for a minute or two before serving to avoid burning.
These luscious lime and coconut microwave puddings are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. The tangy lime and creamy coconut milk create a deliciously moist and flavorful pudding that can be enjoyed warm. Whether it's for a quick dessert or a special treat, this recipe is bound to impress.
