Sticky Toffee Pudding

 This is as nice as the non-keto version

1 1/2 cups Almond Flour

1/4 cup Coconut Flour

40g plain flour

1/2 Tbsp Cocoa powder

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 cup dark soft brown sugar

1/4 Swerve brown sugar

120ml milk

2 eggs

60g butter, melted

2 tbsp Black Treacle

1 tsp vanilla extract

 

For the sauce

90g butter

100g cup dark soft brown sugar

100g Swerve brown sugar

250ml double cream

 

Preheat the oven to 170°C / 150° fan.  Butter a suitable baking tin or dish, approx 21 x 18 cm.

Sift the flour, salt and baking powder into a large bowl.  Add the sugar and mix well.

 In another bowl whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla and melted butter, until a light frothy foam appears on top.

 Add the liquid to the flour mixture and mix together until smooth and well blended.

 Pour into the baking dish and bake for 20-30 minutes until the the sponge is firm and golden brown.

 While the sponge is baking, make the sauce by putting all the ingredients into a large saucepan and heating gently, stirring all the time, until smooth and dark brown.  Set aside to cool slightly until the sponge is done.

 When the sponge is cooked, remove it from the oven and prick all over with a skewer or fork, going right through to the bottom of the cake.  Then pour the toffee sauce over it to allow it to seep into the sponge.  There will be plenty of sauce left over to serve separately with the pudding.

 Serve warm with the reserved toffee sauce, plus cream or ice cream for that extra indulgence

 Serves 6 generously, would easily stretch to 8 servings.
