Individual Sticky Date Puddings
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups (270g)
pitted dates, chopped
1 teaspoon
bicarbonate of soda
1 teaspoon
vanilla essence
60g butter
1 1/2 cups (185g)
self-raising flour
2/3 cup (125g)
soft brown sugar
2 eggs
Sauce
90g butter
3/4 cup (140g)
soft brown sugar
2 tablespoons
golden syrup
3/4 cup (185ml)
cram
Method:
Preheat the oven
to moderate 180°C (350F°/Gas 4). Lightly grease six
1 cup (250ml) muffin holes. Place the dates and 1
cup (250ml) water in a small saucepan, bring to the
boil, then remove from the heat and stir in the
bicarbonate of soda and vanilla. Add the butter and
stir until dissolved.
Sift the flour
into a large bowl, add the sugar and stir. Make a
well in the centre, add the date mixture and eggs
and stir until just combined. Spoon the mixture
evenly into the prepared holes and bake for 20
minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean when
inserted into the center.
Meanwhile, to
make the sauce, place all the ingredients in a
saucepan and stir over low heat for 3-4 minute's or
until the sugar had dissolved. Bring to the boil,
then reduce the heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
To serve, turn
the puddings out onto serving plates, drizzle with
the sauce and serve with ice cream.
