  • 2/3 cup - Coconut sugar
  • 60g - Coconut oil (melted)

VEGAN CARAMEL SAUCE

  • 1 cup – Coconut cream

  • Pinch of salt (optional)

TO SERVE

 

 

 

METHOD

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius or 160 degrees fan-assisted and prepare a baking / loaf tin.
  2. Chop the pitted dried dates up and place in a heatproof bowl. Add the hot water and leave until the dates have softened. Once soft, mash the dates and water together and stir in the bicarbonate of soda.
  3. Add the melted coconut oil to the mixture as well as the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix together until very well combined.
  4. In a large bowl, mix together the gluten-free flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and ground ginger with a whisk.
  5. Pour the date and egg mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until smooth.
  6. Pour into the prepared baking loaf / tin and bake for 50 minutes or until the top springs back and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
  7. For the vegan caramel sauce, in a small pan or pot, add the coconut cream, brown sugar and cornstarch together.
  8. Heat over medium-high heat, stirring constantly while the coconut cream melts. The mixture will get bubbly and almost foamy. Lower the heat to a simmer and stir frequently for about 5 minutes. If you want salted caramel, add a pinch of salt.
  9. Remove from heat and pour half the sauce over the loaf, leave to soak and keep the rest of serve.
  10. Cut a slice of toffee loaf, add a scoop of Oppo's Vanilla Pecan Praline ice cream and drizzle the extra sauce over to finish.
  11. Then, most importantly, enjoy your #GoodTemptation
