Ingredients
Method
- Pour boiling water over dates and baking soda. Let sit 10 minutes.
- Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Separately mix milk, vinegar, vanilla, and oil. Combine wet and dry, then stir in date mixture just until mixed.
- Pour batter into a 9-inch square pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 to 35 minutes.
- Simmer brown sugar and coconut cream for 5 minutes until thick, add vanilla and salt. Poke warm pudding with a skewer, pour half the sauce over, slice, and serve with extra sauce.
Notes
The sauce can be made a day ahead and gently reheated. Let the baked pudding sit for 5 minutes before turning it out so it firms up enough to hold its shape.
