A everyone has been feeling the pinch just lately, I have been going through my recipe books for cheap and cheerful recipes. I came across this one other day and I didn't have to buy any ingredients at all - they were all in my store cupboard!
BANANA BUTTERSCOTCH PUDDING
For The Pudding:
125g plain flour
3 tsp baking powder
125g caster sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 banana, mashed
250ml milk
1tsp vanilla extract
85g butter melted
For The Topping:
100g soft brown sugar
2tbs golden syrup
150ml boiling water
Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream to serve(I used a tin of Evaporated Milk)
Preheat oven 180'C. Gas Mark 4. Sift flour and baking powder into a bowel. Add caster sugar. Mix together beaten egg, mashed banana, milk, vanilla extract and melted butter. Pour into a 1.25ml dish and place on a baking tray.
To make topping, mix brown sugar, syrup, and boiling water in a pan and bring to the boil. Pour slowly over pudding. Bake for 30-40mins until golden and firm in the centre. The pudding will separate with the butterscotch sauce at the bottom and a spongy topping.
Yummy - a great one for the kids.
