Date, apple and walnut cake

Sharing is caring!

Date, apple and walnut combined in an easy and healthy cake. Serve it with a cup of tea or coffee when it comes out of the oven.

It look like it's going to be winter after all. It seemed almost like spring today. I don't get the weather this year. Last year I thought the winter would never end and this year it won't start. At least until Friday. And when it becomes cold, this cake is terrific. You can eat it when it's warm, just baked in the oven or when it's cold with a nice hot cup of coffee or tea.

Because:

• Layer a stripe of baking paper horizontal in the cake tin, so that the edges stick just out of the tin. This way the cake is easy to lift out of the tin.
• Check if the cake is done by prick with a skewer in the middle of the cake. When it comes out dry the cake is ready.

Substitutes

• Use 125 gram self-rising flour instead of plain flour and baking powder.
• Use pecans instead of walnuts.
• You can substitute the apple with pear if you like.

Delicious

with

• For more winter flavor add 2 teaspoons of gingerbread spices.
• Serve the cake with some vanilla ice cream

Storage

• This cake can be stored wrapped in plastic up to 2 days at room temperature.
• Don't store this cake in the refrigerator. Because of the humidity in the refrigerator the structure of the cake will change and won't be as delicious.
• Cake can be frozen when you first wrap it in aluminium foil and then in plastic foil. It stays fresh up to 3 months in the freezer.
