My mom use to make me gingerbread as a kid, and now I can replicate my childhood memories with Slow Cooker Gingerbread Pudding Cake. YUM!
- Grease a 3.5 Quart slow cooker with non-stick spray. Sprinkle in 1 T. flour and shake to coat bottom and sides of slow cooker. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in egg white, vanilla, maple syrup and water, one at a time, until well blended.
- Combine the dry ingredients – flour, baking soda and spices – in a small bowl.
- Add 1/3 of dry mixture to mixing bowl and stir just until combined. Repeat twice more until all ingredients are mixed together. (do not over mix!)
- Pour into the prepared slow cooker.
- Sprinkle with brown sugar.
- Combine hot water and melted butter and pour over the batter but DO NOT stir.
- Cover. Cook on high for 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until a toothpick inserted near the center of cake comes out clean.
- Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and top with whipped cream or ice cream!
Happy Crocking!

I want to try this recipe but every gingerbread recipe I’ve had uses ginger, hence the name gingerbread. I don’t see any ginger in the ingredients and I love the bite that ginger gives to gingerbread.
Laura you will find that same taste in this recipe. It is very good! Happy Crocking!
Thanks, might just try it then 🙂 Found your other gingerbread recipe, have to try that too. Love all these recipes!!
I used to eat this at a restaurant in Vermont called The Noble Savage. It is locally knwn as Indian Pudding. 1000 thanks for the recipe and memories.
Looks great but why so many calories and such a high sodium content?
