Number Of Ingredients 17

Nonstick cooking spray
5 ounces pitted dried dates
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
Pinch of cloves
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cups light-brown sugar
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons molasses
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Maple Toffee Sauce
1 1/4 cups coarsely chopped toasted pecans
Unsweetened whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees with a rack in the middle. Spray one 8 inch-by-3 inch cake pan with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
  • Place dates and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and immediately reduce heat to a simmer; simmer until water is almost evaporated. Transfer dates to the bowl of a food processor; pulse until coarsely chopped. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, and cloves.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add eggs, and beat until combined, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary. Add molasses, maple syrup, vanilla, and date mixture; beat to combine. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
  • Pour 1/2 cup maple toffee sauce into bottom of prepared cake pan; sprinkle with pecans. Pour batter into cake pan, smooth top, and transfer to oven. Bake until deep golden and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes.
  • Remove pudding from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Run a small offset spatula around edge of cake pan and invert pudding onto serving platter. Immediately pour additional maple toffee sauce over cake; let cool slightly. Serve warm with whipped cream.

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 ounces pitted dates
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup light brown sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 tablespoon orange zest
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons Irish whiskey

Steps:

  • For the pudding: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Add the dates and 3/4 cup water to a small saucepan and heat over medium-high heat until boiling. Turn the heat down to low and simmer until the water has slightly reduced and the dates are beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat, then cover the saucepan and let sit for 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the dates and liquid to a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Process until smooth. Pour the date mixture into a bowl and cool to room temperature.
  • Add the flour, baking powder and salt to a mixing bowl. Whisk to break up any lumps of flour. Set aside the dry ingredients. Add the brown sugar and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream the butter and sugar together, scraping down the bowl as needed, until fluffy and lighter in color, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the egg and beat until it is evenly combined. Add the orange zest and vanilla and mix until incorporated. Add half of the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Mix until incorporated, then add the date mixture. Mix until well combined, then add the remaining flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
  • Spray 8 of the cups in a 12-cup muffin pan with the cooking spray. Fill the greased cups with 1/3 cup batter each. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
  • For the whiskey toffee sauce: Meanwhile, add the heavy whipping cream, brown sugar, butter, vanilla and salt to a small saucepan and heat over medium-high heat. Stir the mixture continuously until the butter is melted. Bring the mixture to a boil, then turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the whiskey and continue to simmer until the sauce has slightly darkened in color, an additional 2 minutes. Turn the heat off and keep covered until ready to serve.
  • Cool the puddings in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Once the puddings are cool enough to handle, remove them from the muffin pan using an offset spatula. Trim the domed tops from the puddings and set them on serving plates, cut-side down. Pour the warm whiskey toffee sauce over the puddings and serve immediately.

Time 1h

Yield 6 puddings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup self-rising flour
1 1/3 cups pitted dates, coarsely chopped
1 cup water
6 tablespoons golden syrup (see note)
Butterscotch sauce (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter with the brown sugar, then mix in the eggs and fold in the flour.
  • Puree the dates with 1 cup warm water and mix into batter.
  • Film 6 7-ounce custard cups with golden syrup, then fill with batter and bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until a knife inserted at the edge comes out clean.
  • Run a knife around the sides of puddings and invert onto serving plates. Pour warm butterscotch sauce over each and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to make the toffee sauce to ensure even heat distribution and prevent burning.
  • Make sure the butter and sugar are melted and combined well before adding the cream to the toffee sauce to avoid curdling.
  • Use a baking dish that is large enough to accommodate the toffee sauce and the sponge batter without overflowing.
  • Pour the toffee sauce into the prepared baking dish and tilt it around to coat the bottom evenly before adding the sponge batter.
  • Bake the pudding in a preheated oven to ensure even cooking and prevent the sponge from sinking.
  • Insert a skewer or toothpick into the center of the pudding to check for doneness. It should come out clean when the pudding is cooked through.
  • Let the pudding cool slightly before inverting it onto a serving plate to prevent the toffee sauce from spilling out.
