Instructions

To make date syrup (silan):

  1. Soak Medjool dates in 1 cup of boiling hot water for at least 1 hour. Transfer to a blender or food processor and blend (it’s ok if some chunks remain). Sieve date mixture through a nut bag or double cheesecloth placed over a strainer, getting as much liquid out as possible. Return date mixture to blender, add another cup of boiling hot water and blend again, and sieve through the nut bag or cheesecloth again. You should end up with about 1 ½ cups of date liquid. Save the pulp to use in smoothies, French toast or mix with oatmeal.
  2. Transfer the date liquid to a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Lower heat to medium and continue boiling, stirring often, until it reaches the consistency of honey. Remove from heat - you should end up with about 1 cup of date syrup, and liquid will thicken further upon cooling.

To make healthy pouding chomeur:

  1. When ready to bake, prepare a 9x12 casserole dish by coating it generously with butter or coconut oil. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  2. Reheat the date syrup and add 1 tablespoon of flour. Pour the syrup into the bottom of a prepared casserole dish. In a small bowl, mix gluten free flour, almond flour, baking powder and salt.
  3. In a large bowl using a hand-held mixer or the bowl of a standing mixer, cream together sugar and butter (or coconut oil). You should reach a fluffy, cohesive consistency.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, continuing to beat the mixture as you do.
  5. With the mixer working on low speed, add half the dry ingredients, then the milk and vanilla extract, and finish with the rest of the dry ingredients.
  6. Pour the cake mixture atop the hot date syrup. Transfer gluten free pudding chomeur to the oven, and bake for 40-45 minutes, until the top is golden brown.
  7. Serve gluten free pudding chomeur with more chopped dates, optional vanilla ice cream. Halved ground cherries and blueberries also work very well with it.
