Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup self-rising flour
8 ounces fresh black currants or other berries
Clotted cream or ice cream for topping

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 1/2 cup sugar and slowly add the beaten eggs. Sift the flour over the top and fold it in.
  • Combine the fruit, remaining sugar and 2 tablespoons of water in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat and cook until bubbling, about 3 minutes. Divide among 4 large, 1-cup buttered ramekins or 6 smaller, 2/3-cup buttered ramekins and top with the batter.
  • Fill the bottom of a steamer with water close to, but not touching, the rack; bring to a boil. Cover each ramekin lightly with foil. Place the ramekins on the steamer rack and steam, covered, for 25 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the hot ramekins from the steamer. Lift off the foil and run a thin-bladed knife around the edges of the ramekins and invert them onto dessert plates, shaking the ramekins to release the puddings. Serve hot with clotted cream or ice cream.
