Ingredients225g fresh dates, stoned
One teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
85g unsalted softened butter
170g caster sugar
Two large free-range eggs
170g self-raising flour
¼ teaspoon ground mixed spice
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Two tablespoons Ovaltine
Two tablespoons natural yoghurt for the toffee sauce
115g unsalted butter
115g light muscovado sugar
140ml double cream
MethodPreheat your oven to 180ºC (350ºF or gas mark 4). In a bowl, combine the dates with bicarbonate of soda and pour in 200ml (7fl oz) of boiling water. Let them sit for a few minutes to soften, then drain the water.
Blend the dates in a food processor until you achieve a smooth purée.
In another bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light in colour using a wooden spoon. Then, mix in the eggs, flour, mixed spice, cinnamon, and Ovaltine.
Combine everything thoroughly before gently folding in the yogurt and the date purée.
Transfer the mixture into a greased ovenproof dish and bake for 35 minutes in the preheated oven.
While the pudding is baking, prepare the toffee sauce by melting the butter, sugar, and cream in a saucepan over low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens and deepens in colour.
Once the pudding is ready, serve it warm at the table and drizzle with the toffee sauce.
