Notes

 
  1. For best results, always weigh ingredients by the gram using a digital scale. 
  2. Always use room temperature eggs in baking. 
  3. You can replace the plain/all-purpose flour with polenta flour to make this dessert gluten-free. 
  4. Use the strips of parchment paper to help you gently tug the sponge out of the tin. Run a knife around the edge to make it easier if necessary. 
  5. This mini sponge cake recipe can be made ahead of time and reheated in the microwave. 
  6. Store wrapped in plastic food wrap to maintain its moist texture. 
  7. It also freezes well, wrap each sponge pudding in plastic food wrap and aluminum foil and use within 1 month.
