1. Place dates and water in a large covered bowl and microwave for 2 -3 minutes to soften. Leave to stand for 10 minutes and then mix to a paste with a fork.
2. Meanwhile grease baking tray or containers well with melted margarine and sprinkle with a little Wheat Free Mix to coat.
3. Place all ingredients including the dates in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer or vigorously with a wooden spoon for 1 – 2 minutes until a smooth runny cake batter is made.
4. Pour into the prepared tray or divide between 8 containers. Bake for 20 – 25 minutes for individuals or 30–40 minutes for 1 large pudding until the sponge springs back when lightly touched.
5. To make the sauce gently warm ingredients together until simmering. Cut whole pudding into portions or remove puddings from the mould and place on serving plates topped with a generous drizzle of sauce and a few pecan nuts.
