Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    Delicious. Made this today. I only used 130g of sugar which is still sweet enough, would also be great with custard. Have also added to my favourites. Thanks for sharing.

    Lovely slice; made yesterday; tried it warm from the oven - nice then, but even better cold from the fridge just now for morning tea! Would be a lovely alternative to sticky date as a winter sweet with double cream or mascarpone. Thanks for the treat and yet another to add to my burgeoning fav recipe collection!
