Sunday sticky date and fig pudding fix with pistachio ice cream, chopped pistachio and crushed rose petals.

Ingredients: 

• 15 Medjool dates, seed removed and roughly chopped

• 4 dried figs, roughly chopped

• 1 tsp baking soda

In a pot, add the chopped dates, figs, hot water and baking soda. Bring it to a boil. Let it simmer gently for 5 minutes and then turn heat off. Mash.

Once date mixture is cool, add:

• 1.5 tbsp of brown sugar

• 2 tbsp of coconut oil

• 1 egg

• 3/4 cup ground almond / almond meal

Whisk.

Line two small baking tins (I’m using 4 inch cake tins). Bake in a pre-heated oven (180C) for 20-25 mins.
