Ingredients

• 130 g (3/4 cup) pitted dates soaked overnight in cold water or for 10 minutes in boiling water
• 240 g (2 cups) ground almonds (almond meal)
• 4 tablespoons cocoa powder
• 4 tablespoons oil* (coconut, olive or vegetable oil)
• 1/4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)
• 60 ml (1/4 cup) unsweetened almond milk (or sub any other plant-based milk)

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit)
• Drain away most of the water from soaking the dates, leaving behind about 5 tablespoons 
• Use a food processor or blender to whizz the dates into a smooth purée 
• Place the puréed dates in a bowl with all the other ingredients and mix well
• Transfer into a greased baking dish - I used a 7inch/18cm round springform baking tin 
• Bake in oven for around 20 minutes - it doesn't matter if it's still a little gooey when you take it out of the oven as it will firm up when cooled
• Keeps covered in the fridge for up to a few days

Notes

• Several readers have told me they made this cake oil-free by substituting the oil with applesauce, which seems to have worked well. So please do this if you're looking for an oil-free cake!
