Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

For pudding
1 3/4 cups packed pitted dates (about 10 ounces)
2 cups water
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
For sauce
1 3/4 sticks (3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Accompaniment: vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • Make pudding:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. and butter and flour an 8-inch square baking pan (2 inches deep), knocking out excess flour.
  • Coarsely chop dates and in a 1 1/2- to 2-quart saucepan simmer dates in water, uncovered, 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat and stir in baking soda. (Mixture will foam.) Let mixture stand 20 minutes.
  • While mixture is standing, into a bowl sift together flour, baking powder, ginger, and salt. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, beating after each addition until just combined. Add date mixture and with a wooden spoon stir batter until just combined well.
  • Pour batter into baking pan and set pan in a larger baking pan. Add enough hot water to larger pan to reach halfway up sides of smaller pan and bake in middle of oven until a tester comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove smaller pan from water bath and cool pudding to warm on a rack.
  • Make sauce while pudding is cooling:
  • In a 1 1/2- to 2-quart heavy saucepan melt butter over moderate heat and add brown sugar. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally, and stir in cream and vanilla. Simmer sauce, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Cool sauce to warm.
  • Cut warm pudding into squares. Serve pudding with ice cream and warm sauce.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 ½ ounces dark chocolate, grated
7 ounces chopped pitted dates
1 ¼ cups water
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ cup softened butter
¾ cup superfine (castor) sugar
2 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup butter
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar for dusting
3 cups vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12 cup muffin tin. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and chocolate in a small bowl, and set aside.
  • Bring the dates and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Remove from the heat, and stir in the baking soda. Allow the mixture to stand for 5 minutes, then scrape into a blender, and carefully puree until smooth; set aside.
  • Cream 1/4 cup of butter together with the superfine sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition. Fold in the flour mixture and the date puree until well blended. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Meanwhile, stir together the cream, brown sugar, and 1 cup of butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat until the butter melts; set aside.
  • When the puddings have baked for 25 minutes, remove them from the oven, and cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove the puddings from the muffin tin, and place them onto a baking sheet. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the sauce over each pudding, then return to the oven and bake for 5 minutes more.
  • To serve, spoon some of the sauce onto the bottom of a dessert plate, and place a pudding on top. Lightly dust with confectioners' sugar, and top with a 1/4 cup scoop of ice cream. Repeat with the remaining date puddings.

STEAMED OATMEAL DATE PUDDING



Steamed Oatmeal Date Pudding image

This is from New Settlement Cookbook. Great thing about this steamed pudding recipe is the fiber from the oatmeal and the lack of suet. There's even iron-rich molasses. Heck, it's so healthy, you can eat it for breakfast . Makes a nice change from regular oatmeal. Of course, the sauce will make it less like breakfast. The original recipe uses dates, but you can use other dried fruits. Depending on the fruit you use, it won't be as sweet and will be chunkier, as dates sort of melt away when cooked. To steam, put molds or ramekins onto a steamer insert. Cover the molds with greased aluminum foil. Make sure to replenish the water as it boils away.
