Healthy nut-free banana & date cake

IMG_3838

This is the most amazingly delicious gluten & nut free moist vegan banana cake I have ever made! I have been working on perfecting one that would taste better than the original but be healthier & guilt free. I only got to enjoy 1 slice before my husband the hoover demolished the entire cake!



Ingredients

Wet Ingredients
  • 3 very ripe mashed bananas (the more brown/spottier) the better
  • 3 fresh chopped medjool dates
  • 1/2 cup melted unsalted vegan butter of choice  (I use nuttlex)
  • Vegan egg replacer for vegan option or 2 large eggs for vegetarian
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1-2 Tbs coconut milk
Dry Ingredients
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 cup gluten free oat flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • pinch baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp himalayan crystal salt
  • 1/4 – 1/2 cup stevia or natural granulated sweetener of choice (sweet tooth’s add 1/2 but test flavour first) (I used Natvia sweetener which may be slightly less sweeter than some other stevias so please be mindful of this).

Method

Method
  1. Preheat oven to 350F /170 degrees and grease a 9X5 loaf tin with coconut oil spray
  2. Place all dry ingredients & dates in a small bowl & mix
  3. Place all wet ingredients in a small bowl and mix
  4. Combine both wet & dry ingredients together in 1 bowl until well incorporated
  5. Pour mixture into prepared/greased loaf tin
  6. Bake for 45- 60 minutes (check with a toothpick every so often from 30-45 mins as all ovens vary) ⭐ Allow to cool and enjoy!
