Method

Heat the oven to 180ºC fan/gas 6. Beat together the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, beating well between additions. Beat in most of the lime zest and all the juice, then gently mix in the flour, coconut and milk.
In another clean bowl, whisk the egg whites to soft peaks, then gently fold into the batter in 2 additions until just combined.
Divide the raspberries among the prepared ramekins/bowls, then top with the pudding mixture. Pour boiling water into the roasting tin so it comes halfway up the sides of the ramekins/bowls. Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden. Sprinkle with extra toasted coconut and the remaining lime zest to serve.

Next time: Make the pudding in one large dish and bake for an additional 15 minutes.

Easy swaps: Switch the lime and raspberries for lemon and blackberries (or other seasonal berries). Replace the butter and milk with plant-based alternatives to make the recipe dairy free.
