Instructions
Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 4/180°C/350°F.
Spray 4 individual pudding basins or ramekin dishes with low fat cooking spray.
Beat the margarine and sugar together until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the egg then stir in the vanilla extract. Sift in the flour and fold it in with a large metal spoon. Mash the banana and stir it in with the dates and milk.
Put 1 teaspoon golden syrup into each pudding basin or ramekin. Spoon the creamed mixture on top.
Cover tightly with pieces of foil. Stand the basins or dishes in a small roasting pan or baking dish and pour in enough warm water to come halfway up their sides.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until set and golden. Cool for a few moments whilst you heat the custard, then run a knife around each one and turn them out. Serve with the custard.
