Ingredients
- 18-20 -170 grams - Dates
- 1 1/4 Cup Vegan Milk (- Vegan or normal non-vegan milk can be used)
- 1 Cup Whole Wheat Flour (- can be replaced with all purpose / plain flour / maida)
- 1/2 Cup Oil
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 tbsp Walnuts/Pecans

Instructions
1. Slightly warm the milk and de-seed and soak the date for 4-5 hours. More or less time might be required depending on the Dates
2. Dry roast the Walnuts or Pecans on medium on stove top or in an oven until fragrant. Be careful not to burn them. Let them cool.
3. Once the dates are soaked, blend the dates along with the milk it is soaked in to a smooth paste.
4. Add oil and mix
5. Sieve the flour, Baking Soda and Baking Powder.
6. Chop the nuts roughly.
7. Add the nuts into the dry flour and mix.
8. Slowly add the dry mixture to the wet mix and mix slowly.
9. One can add 4-5 tablespoon of sugar if you feel it is not sweet. I did not add any.
10. Bake in preheated oven at 170 Deg C for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. I baked in a Loaf tin, one can bake this in a square tin or a round tin. Baking time will vary depending on the size and shape of the cake pan.
