Mini Egg Slow Cooker Pudding
This simple Mini Egg Slow Cooker Pudding can be prepped in just 5 minutes. Think warm vanilla sponge with melty Mini Eggs running through it - delish!
Special Equipment
- Slow cooker / Crockpot
Ingredients
- 225 g self raising flour
- 120 g light brown sugar
- Pinch salt
- 150 ml milk
- 140 g unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 256 g bag of Mini Eggs
Instructions
- Put the Mini Eggs in a resealable food bag. Level them out and with the flat end of a meat cleaver or rolling pin, work your way around hitting the eggs once or twice max just to split them open (you want them in large pieces).
- Add the flour, sugar and salt to your slow cooker pot, and stir well with a balloon hand whisk, breaking up any lumps of sugar.
- Melt the butter in the microwave for around 45 seconds. Then add it to the measuring jug with the milk in. Add in the vanilla essence. Pour the wet ingredients into the slow cooker, stirring as you go with the balloon whisk. Stir vigorously until no flecks of flour remain. Then add in a small handful of the Mini Eggs. Fold them through the thick batter briefly, then level out the best you can with a spatula.
- Pick out around 7 larger pieces of Mini Eggs with shell on and set aside (we’ll use these later to decorate). Top the batter with the remaining eggs.
- Cook on high for 2 ½ hours or until the middle looks set and the edges look golden.
- Once done, gently press the saved 7 Mini Egg pieces into melted chocolate areas to decorate, placing them on shell up and spacing them out across the top. Serve immediately as is or with vanilla or clotted cream ice cream. If not ready to serve, pop a tea towel just under the lid and draped over the slow cooker and leave it on the ‘keep warm’ setting (will stay warm for up to a hour with the slow cooker turned off also). You can reheat leftover servings in the microwave for 15-35 seconds.
STORAGE
Leftovers can be stored in an air-tight container or resealable food bag for up to 4 days (cook day + 3). Reheat individual servings in the microwave for 15-35 seconds before serving.
