A lot of people asked me for this recipe from last Wednesday night’s Mantra Room Kirtan. It is such a simple recipe to whip up and so so delicious.
Pudding
- 1 cup chopped dried dates
- 1 1/2 cups self-raising flour (can be wholemeal)
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 3/4 cup coconut cream Sauce
- 2 cups boiling water
- 1 cup maple syrup
- 2 x tablespoons vegan butter
Instructions for Pudding
Cover dates in boiling water and let them sit for 10 minutes, drain
Preheat oven to 180c or 160c for a fan-forced oven
Grease a shallow ovenproof dish (2 litre or 8-cup capacity)
Sift the flour into a bowl
Add the drained dates and coconut cream and 1/2 cup maple syrup
Mix until combined
Spread the mixture into the prepared dish Instructions for the
Sauce
In a large heatproof jug, place the butter and then the boiling water
Wait until butter is melted then add the maple syrup and mix well
Very gently pour over the top of the pudding batter
Place dish on oven tray
Bake for about 40minutes or until browned and centre is firm to touch
Stand for 10 minutes before serving with whipped or thick coconut cream or ice-cream
The more the pudding cools the thicker the sauce will become I like the sauce thick so I let it cool down until just warm 2 cups seems a lot of water, but it makes it really saucy so I’d stick with the whole 2 cups.
