Our Christmas Day Faovrite

We love this English favorite and make it every year. Since being GF, this recipe is a good substitute. We make a 1.5 recipe for our spring form pan.

This was my first time eating a sticky toffee pudding. It was so rich and delicious. I used a 9 inch pan and it turned out quite squat. An 8 inch would have been better. I drained and blended the dates before adding them to the batter and thought the texture of the cake was good - not to wet or dry but nice and moist and tender. I will make it again.

Used 9" and it worked out well. I will say I do NOT agree with the idea of putting the dates in whole. After the dates soaked in the hot water I ran them through my food processor, then dumped into the recipe. Came out perfect.

How can I adapt this recipe for cupcakes? Should I adjust the cooking time?
