brown sugar

🥗Healthier: coconut sugar

💰Cheaper: granulated sugar

self-raising flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat adds fiber.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Grease a baking dish with butter.

Chop dates and place them in a bowl.

Pour boiling water over the chopped dates and let them soak for 10 minutes.

In a separate bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Stir in the soaked dates along with their water.

Sift in the self-raising flour and baking soda, then fold gently to combine.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.

Bake for 30-35 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.

While baking, prepare the toffee sauce by heating cream and brown sugar in a saucepan until dissolved.

Once the pudding is baked, let it cool slightly before serving with warm toffee sauce.
