Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup So Good Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • 1 1/2 cups self-raising wholemeal flour
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 100 g pitted dates, chopped
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

For the topping 
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1?4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp non-dairy butter or margarine
  • 1/2 cup So Good Unsweetened Almond Milk

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C, lightly coat a 20 x 20 cm square pan with cooking oil spray. Place pan on a flat baking tray to catch any drips.
  2. Combine flour, brown sugar, dates, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Add So Good Almond Milk and stir to combine. Spread batter into the prepared pan.
  3. Combine water, brown sugar and margarine for topping in a large heat-proof jug. Stir until margarine is melted, then add So Good. Pour liquid carefully over the surface of the batter – do not stir!
  4. Bake for 25-30 mins, until centre is firm and edges are bubbling. Stand for 10 minutes before serving warm.
