Microwave Mince Pie Pudding
Flaky, all-butter golden pastry filled with a delicately spiced sweet filling, baked until crisp and aromatic.
Ingredients
- • 90 g mincemeat
- • 125 g self-raising flour
- • 125 g reduced-fat spread
- • 60 g white granulated sweetener
- • 60 g caster sugar
- • 2 eggs
- • 1 tsp baking powder
- • 1/2 orange, (zest and juice)
Preparation Steps
Grease a 1.2L pudding basin with reduced-fat spread. Cut a circle of non-stick baking paper to fit into the bottom of the dish. Spoon the mincemeat on top and roughly spread out.
To a mixing bowl add the flour, spread, sweetener, caster sugar, eggs and baking powder. Whisk with an electric whisk for 2 minutes until light and creamy.
Add the orange zest and juice and mix by hand into the cake mixture. Scrape the cake mixture into the bowl on top of the mincemeat layer.
Cover the basin and cook in the microwave for 6 minutes until a knife inserted comes out clean. Leave to stand for 5 minutes.
Loosen round the edge of the basin with a knife and place a plate on top, flip over onto a serving plate, slice and serve.
