Ingredients
Sticky Date Pudding
- 210 g dates, seeded
- 260 g boiling water
- 1 tsp bi-carb soda
- 100 g brown sugar
- 60 g butter
- 2 eggs
- 140 g SR Flour
Caramel Sauce
- 140 g brown sugar
- 100 g butter
- 250 g cream
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
Method
Sticky Date Pudding
Preheat oven to 180C.
Grease 20cm square tin or a muffin tray.
Combine dates, boiling water and soda in a bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes.
Add sugar and butter to mixture and process on speed 6 – 7 for 10 seconds until dates are chopped.
Scrape down and add flour first, then eggs and and process on speed 4 – 5 for 5 seconds at a time until combined.
Pour into prepared tin or large muffin cups. (Makes 9 large muffins)
Bake for 15 – 17 minutes in a moderate oven for muffins and 20 – 25 for larger tin.
Stand for 5 minutes before turning out.
Caramel Sauce
Place all into TM bowl and cook on 80C, speed 1 for 2 minutes until butter has melted.
Cook for another 5 – 8 minutes on Varoma, speed 2. Sauce will thicken on standing.
Tip
Use thickened cream or add more butter if you would like the sauce to be a little thicker.
Alternatively, cook it longer.
Try this with Rapadura sugar for a lovely butterscotch flavour. For a more dense, but higher fibre pudding, use wholemeal self raising flour.
