How to Steam the Puddings in the Instant Pot
Place the wire rack into the Instant Pot. Place the ramekins on the wire rack. Pour 4 cups of hot water into the Instant Pot. Cover and set the instant pot to “steam” and set the timer for 25 minutes.
Release steam either through NPR or by turning to “vent” – use caution if releasing steam via vent.
Remove foil and run a thin knife around the ramekins and turn out puddings on small dessert plates.
Drizzle with caramel sauce and serve.
If you don’t have an Instant Pot, you can bake these puddings! Pre heat the oven to 350 degrees and bake for 20 – 30 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
How to Steam the Puddings on the Stove Top
Use a large pasta pot or dutch oven that will hold the ramekins comfortably
Place a rack on the bottom of the pot and place the ramekins on top.
Pour enough boiling water into the pot to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Place the lid on the pot and bring the pot to a simmer over medium-low heat.
Simmer for 2 1/2 – 3 hours or until the puddings are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with small crumbs attached.
Carefully remove the ramekins from the pot, remove the foil and let cool.
How to Unmold the Puddings
To unmold the puddings, run a sharp knife around the inside of the ramekin
Place a serving plate (serving side down) on top of the ramekin and flip over.
Top with homemade or store-bought caramel sauce.
