Ingredients<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n
  • Flax seed powder<\/li>
  • Flour<\/li>
  • Brown sugar<\/li>
  • Baking powder<\/li>
  • Bicarb\/baking soda<\/li>
  • Salt<\/li>
  • Vanilla essence<\/li>
  • Vinegar<\/li>
  • Apricot jam<\/li>
  • Soy milk<\/li>
  • Coconut milk <\/li>
  • Treacle sugar\/soft brown sugar<\/li>
  • Vegan butter or margarine<\/li>
  • Sherry (Optional)<\/li>
  • Orange essence (Optional)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n

    Method<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

    1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius and grease a large flat baking dish\/brownie pan. The one I used for this recipe is 40cm x 25cm, but you can halve the recipe for a smaller pan. <\/p>\n\n

    2. Combine two tablespoons of flaxseed powder with six tablespoons of boiling water, to make flax eggs – set aside to thicken<\/p>\n\n

    3. Sift two cups of flour, two cups of brown sugar, two teaspoons baking powder, two teaspoons bicarb\/baking soda, and a half teaspoon salt. <\/p>\n\n

    4. Add to the flax eggs: one teaspoon of vanilla essence, two tablespoons vinegar and four tablespoons apricot jam, and mix. <\/p>\n\n

    5. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, along with two cups of soy milk. <\/p>\n\n

    6. Bake in the preheated oven for 50 – 60 minutes. The pudding should brown on the top, and come away from the sides of the pan. <\/p>\n\n

    7. While the pudding is baking, heat in a pot: one can add coconut milk, one cup treacle sugar, one cup soy milk, 125g vegan butter or margarine, and a pinch of salt. Allow the sauce to cook slowly and caramelize slightly. Remove from heat and add a tablespoon of vanilla essence. Optional extras for the sauce: two tablespoons of sherry, and\/or one teaspoon of orange essence. <\/p>\n\n

    8. When the pudding is done, pour the sauce over it while it is still warm. Enjoy with vegan custard or ice cream.<\/p>\n\n
