Pumpkin isn’t just reserved for hearty savoury dishes – it makes a lovely addition to these soft little gluten-free puddings, spiked with cinnamon and studded with sticky sweet dates. So instead of carving up that pumpkin for your next Sunday roast, reserve it for this delicious aromatic dessert to finish off the meal.

Tip:

  • Cover the cake with aluminium foil if the top browns too quickly.
  • These little puddings are also great eaten cold the following day. They keep  well in an airtight container for several days (without topping), or can be individually wrapped and popped into the freezer.
  • You could try experimenting with sweet potato instead of pumpkin/squash.

Ive loved watching you since I found your show about 7 or 8 years ago. Your little Paris Kitchen. I loved learning about the different recipes and places you learned to cook them. I was trying to think of my favorite one. But they were all my favorite. In fact we had them taped and Id watch them over and over. Trying to pick up every little tid bit from everyone of your . The places you went and the delicious and wonderful looking recipes you made from that little kitchen. I wanted to be one of the gals from your Tea with the Madeleines. I wanted to make them myself. And I bought a pan and made them right away.. I have so enjoyed all your shows. Sadly we can’t get them anymore… But I try to keep up… Thanks for all the memories….
