Sticky Toffee Pudding Recipe Serves 6 to 8 Ingredients For the Pudding: 250g x Dates, pitted and chopped 175–200ml x Boiling water 1 x Black tea bag 1 tsp x Bicarbonate of soda 100g x Unsalted butter, softened 150g x Muscovado sugar 2 x Eggs 50g x Golden syrup 100ml x Milk 175g x Plain (all-purpose) flour 7g x Baking powder For the Toffee Sauce: 170g x Muscovado sugar 200ml x Double (heavy) cream 60g x Unsalted butter Method 1.

Gradually pour the wet mixture into the butter and sugar, mixing continuously until fully incorporated. Next, mix in the date mixture. Sift in the flour and baking powder, then gently fold through the batter. 3. Bake Pour the batter into a greased oven dish or cake tin. Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) for 45–50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. 4. Make the Toffee Sauce Place the sugar, cream, and butter into a saucepan. Heat gently over low heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved and the butter has melted. Continue to stir until the sauce is smooth and glossy. 5. Serve Cut the sticky toffee pudding into portions and generously drizzle with the hot toffee sauce. Serve with cream, custard, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. #stickytoffeepudding #recipe
