Title: Banana Cake
Category: Banana
Yield: 6" Cake

Ingredients:
2/3 lb Wholemeal Flour
2 tbsp Baking Powder
6 Dates, pitted
2 tbsp Date Syrup
1 tbsp Barley Malt Extract
3 Bananas
3 tsp Vanilla Essence
1/8 pt Soy Milk
1/8 pt Water
1/4 lb Apple Sauce
1 doz Whole Almonds to Garnish

Directions:
Mix the flour and baking powder together. Cut the dates up with a pair of scissors and add to the flour. Put the bananas, the date syrup, malt extract, apple sauce, vanilla essence, water and soya milk in a blender and blend for about twenty seconds. You don't really want the bananas to be totally pulverised, a few little chunks are nice. Mix the liquid and dry ingredients together. Place in a 6 inch baking tin, which has been previously coated with non-fat spray and dusted with flour. Optionally place a few almonds on top of the cake for decoration. Spray the top of the cake with a little soya milk or oil (optional, though the cake gets quite crusty without it). Bake in an oven at about 170 deg C/ 340 deg F for approximately an hour or until a knife comes out clean.
