Ultimate Sticky Toffee Pudding

Vegan Ultimate Sticky Toffee Pudding Recipe

Sticky toffee pudding is a classic British dessert. Ours has a perfectly moist sponge with a delicious toffee sauce, and it’s one of our all-time favs.

  • Medjool dates, if you can find them, arguably have the tastiest caramel flavour. But you can use any dates you like.
  • We use soya milk, which is slightly creamier and we think adds a more moist texture to our pudding. But again, any plant-based milk will do.
  • Vegan single cream is becoming easier to find in supermarkets. We use a soy-based cream, but full-fat tinned coconut milk will also work.

[…] We’ve found it rather tricky to find a vegan alternative of sticky toffee pudding in UK supermarkets – so please let us know if you know of any! There are still some great recipes online that help us manage our sugar fix! Check out this Ultimate Sticky Toffee Pudding. […]

This is an amazing recipe and everyone who has tasted it, loves it! One note of warning, though – my third attempt resulted in the glass mixing bowl exploding! I think this was the result of the mix of bicarbonate of soda and vinegar. I went straight out and bought a plastic mixing bowl!

Hi Kim! So glad you like the recipe. It is soooo delicious. I absolutely love it, too 🙂 That’s strange your bowl exploded! That definitely shouldn’t happen! Thanks for getting in touch. Best, Roxy

Can I do this without the vinegar as my daughter hates it xx

Reply
Roxy, So Vegan April 10, 2019 - 12:06 pm

Hey Sue, you wont be able to taste the vinegar at all once the cake is made. You could try leaving it out too though. Best, Roxy

Ben, So Vegan May 27, 2019 - 6:31 pm

Hey Kamala, yes that should work but you will need to add a tsp and a half of baking powder. Hope this helps. Thanks, Roxy

Hi, for a gluten free recipe can you substitute the normal flour with gluten free one?

Reply
Ben, So Vegan September 30, 2021 - 9:09 am

Hey! We haven’t tested this but we’re sure it will work. The texture might be slightly more dense due to the gluten-free flour, but it should still rise and it’ll taste delicious 🙂

Does anyone have a recommendation for muscavado sugar and single cream in the US?

Reply
Sam September 29, 2021 - 12:43 am

In the US go with soft dark brown sugar, and substitute canned whole fat coconut milk

Reply
Ben, So Vegan September 30, 2021 - 9:10 am

Any dark brown sugar will work. And yep you can try using full fat coconut milk or alternatively any plant-based cream substitute.
