Time 1h22m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 17

¼ cup water, or as needed
¼ cup white sugar
½ small pear, diced
2 teaspoons chopped walnuts
1 pinch ground ginger
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1 pinch dried lemon peel
½ cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
1 egg
2 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon spiced rum
½ teaspoon dried lemon peel
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup cubed fresh bread

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine water and 1/4 cup sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until dissolved and light brown in color, about 6 minutes. Pour into the bottoms of 2 custard cups; rotate cups to spread caramel across the bottoms.
  • Arrange pear pieces over the caramel; top with walnuts. Sprinkle ginger, 1 pinch nutmeg, black pepper, cinnamon, and 1 pinch lemon peel on top.
  • Heat milk and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until butter is melted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  • Whisk egg, 2 tablespoons sugar, rum, 1/2 teaspoon lemon peel, and 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg in a bowl until well beaten. Stir in the milk mixture slowly; mix well. Stir in bread cubes; let soak for 5 minutes. Divide mixture between the prepared cups. Place cups in a baking pan; add hot tap water to come halfway up the sides of the cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until set, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool until safe to handle, about 20 minutes.
  • Run a sharp knife around the inside edge of the cooled puddings and invert onto small dessert plates.
