#Rainbowweek7 - This is a simple and a yummy Date Pudding that is steamed to perfection. I have not added any sugar or artificial colour. So this dessert can be relished guilt free. It is a very easy recipe as very few ingredients went into dishing out this amazing pudding. Any sauce of your choice like chocolate sauce, caramel sauce or maple syrup can be drizzled over it and enjoyed.
