Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and grease and line two medium loaf tins.
  2. Add the bananas to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat until mashed.
  3. Add in the rest of the ingredients, including the water left from soaking the dates, and mix again for 3 minutes until no lumps of flour remain.
  4. Split the cake mixture evenly between the two tins and level out, then you can sprinkle the top of each cake with a little caster sugar for a delicious caramel crust once baked!
  5. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean.
  6. Cool out of the tins on a wire rack and enjoy!
