- 200g (1 1/4 cups) wholemeal spelt flour
- 70g (1/3 cup) rapadura sugar or brown sugar
- 60g whole almond meal (see tip)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 100g (1/3 cup) unsweetened apple puree
- 80ml (1/3 cup) melted coconut oil (or olive oil)

- 3 tablespoons rapadura sugar or brown sugar
- 160ml (2/3 cup) pouring cream

Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan forced. Grease a round 20cm cake pan. Line with baking paper.
Step 2
Place dates in a large heatproof bowl. Pour over the boiling water. Stir in the bicarb. Set aside for 10 minutes to soften, then use a fork to lightly mash.
Step 3
Combine flour, sugar, almond meal, baking powder and spices in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre. Add apple, oil, eggs and date mixture. Stir until combined. Spoon into the prepared pan.
Step 4
Line the base of a roasting pan with a tea towel. Place cake in the prepared roasting pan. Pour enough boiling water into the roasting pan to reach two-thirds up the side of the cake pan. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Remove from roasting pan.
Step 5
Meanwhile, for the caramel, cook sugar and 125ml (1/2 cup) water in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes or until thickened and reduced by half. Stir in cream and vanilla. Cook for a further 1-2 minutes, until smooth.
Step 6
Spoon half the sauce over the pudding. Serve with yoghurt and remaining sauce.
