Carrot and Walnut Puddings

"I love steamed puddings, and little individual ones are so fun. These are like little steamed carrot cakes, an they fit well into my Pampered Chef glass cups. I really like that with this recipe the puddings steam in the oven rather than on the stove top. You could add raisins or sultanas if you wanted to. From Delicious magazine."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm an American living in London since I got married in 1994 (except for a brief stint in New Jersey, and then Luxembourg). I work part-time for a national charity and also study social sciences part-time with the Open University. Keeps me busy, but I still find plenty of time to cook and search for 'zaar recipes!
