Grain-Free Sticky Toffee Fig Pudding Cake

Jump to Recipe

 

once again, i’m revisiting an oldie but a goodie.

this one was first published in may of 2011. it’s been a minute.

but i’ve improved this one… not just the photos, but the recipe too. i hope you enjoy it! it’s goooood.

ohhh… and this post. clearly it’s a little dated. remember when kate and william got married. and we weren’t wearing masks. good times.

…….

i suppose it would’ve made a lot of sense to post this recipe a few weeks ago with all of the hoopla around the royal wedding. honestly though, i didn’t watch the wedding. i know, i know. i hope that doesn’t make me a bad person. i certainly wish those two the best and hope they’re truly happy. i think the pressure of that day would’ve pretty much given me a heart attack.

but, i love england. the architecture. the history. the accents. and i do believe they’ve contributed some tasty dishes to this world, despite the bad reputation they have in the arena of tastebuds. if you have any doubt, this one will convince you for sure.

firstly, the word “pudding” is always a great place to start for me. though, like the words “biscuit”, “chips”, and “rocket”, pudding means something entirely different on the other side of the pond. their puddings are typically flour-y batters that are steamed or baked. like a tender cake.

sticky toffee pudding is one of the most famous of britain’s puddings… and for good reason. it’s a sweet baked cake, filled with softened dates. and then the sticky toffee… watch out. delicious.

so if you’re still on a royal wedding high, or if you are just looking for a perfect new dessert,
this one’s so worth it.

I’m so obsessed lately with this song that my girls and I were singing it at the top of our lungs driving through school drop-off this morning.
•
It’s so fun and meaningful and emotional. And I love it.
•
Go give it another listen today. And I dare you not to sing along.
