Ingredients
1 cup soft dates (pitted and chopped)
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup melted butter or oil
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt

Directions
  • add chopped dates and baking soda to a bowl
  • pour boiling water and let soak for 10min
  • whisk eggs and sugar until fluffy
  • add oil and date mixture
  • sift and fold in dry mixture to date mixture
  • pour batter into greased pan
  • bake at 180°C for 30-35min
  • cool slightly and drizzle with honey for extra shine
  • I use bundt cake pan: cool for half hour then slowly remove the cake

Foodnote: Have some leftover dates from Ramadan. Decided to try this cake as it looks quite easy and I have most of the ingredients. It is very nice and soft. Really like this cake.
