Sticky Toffee Pudding

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dates

    In a bowl, combine the chopped dates and boiling water. Let them soak for about 10-15 minutes until softened.

  2. 2

    Mix the Batter

    In a separate bowl, cream together the brown butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Stir in the soaked dates (including the water), followed by the flour, baking powder, ground ginger, fennel pollen, and salt. Mix until just combined.

  4. 4

    Bake the Pudding

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking dish and pour the batter into it. Bake for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a saucepan, combine heavy cream, brown sugar, and unsalted butter over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Cut the sticky toffee pudding into squares, drizzle with warm sauce, and serve with ginger ice cream on the side.
