Sticky date self-saucing pudding with ginger caramel sauce is a deliciously rich dessert that combines the sweet flavors of dates with a spicy ginger twist. This pudding creates its own caramel sauce while baking, making it a perfect treat for any occasion.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Place the chopped dates in a small bowl.
- Add the baking soda and pour over 1/2 cup (125ml) of boiling water.
- Let it sit for about 10 minutes to soften the dates.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the self-raising flour and cinnamon.
- Stir in the brown sugar.
- Add the softened dates (including the soaking water) to the dry ingredients, along with the milk and melted butter.
- Mix well until a smooth batter forms.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared pudding dish, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon.
- Combine the brown sugar and ginger powder in a separate bowl.
- Evenly sprinkle this mixture over the top of the batter.
- Dot with the 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Carefully pour 1 1/4 cups (300ml) of boiling water over the back of a spoon onto the batter. This will form the sauce as the pudding bakes.
- Place the pudding dish into the preheated oven.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is firm and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the pudding stand for 5 minutes once out of the oven. This will allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Serve warm, spooning generous amounts of the ginger caramel sauce from the bottom over the top of the pudding.
Tips:
- Make sure to chop the dates finely to ensure they spread evenly throughout the pudding and soften adequately during baking.
- Soak the dates in boiling water for about 10 minutes before using them in the recipe to make them softer and more blendable.
- Sift the self-raising flour to avoid any lumps in your pudding batter.
- Stir the batter gently to avoid over-mixing, which can result in a dense pudding.
- For an extra burst of flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the batter.
- Test the pudding with a skewer inserted into the center; it should come out clean when the pudding is done.
- For the best results, serve the pudding immediately after baking when the caramel sauce is still warm and gooey.
Your sticky date self-saucing pudding with ginger caramel sauce is now ready to be enjoyed. Serve it warm, topped with a dollop of cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent experience. This delightful dessert is sure to impress your guests and satisfy your sweet tooth.
