Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Cake was delicious without sugar , I also used Nuttlex instead of butter and added 50 gms of dried cranberries...
Great recipe, loved in our household. I didn't add any sugar and it is perfect without, due to the sweetness of the dates and the honey, thankyou for sharing.
Used raw sugar as didn't have coconut sugar (never heard of it before). Would process dates & walnuts for 2-3 seconds as would prefer cake a little chunkier but can understand processing longer for children. Lovely moist cake, would definately make it again. Thanks for sharing recipe.
Have made this twice now, and it is delicious. Batter is so creamy I could happily eat it raw. I found it took around 1:10 to cook, as the centre was very still raw at 50 minutes. Tended to crumble a bit when cutting, but we all enjoyed it. Thanks for the recipe, will be making it regularly.
Scrumptious!
I didn't have coconut sugar so used raw instead. Also, I followed JeffnJulie's advice and reduced the processing time for the dates and walnuts, love the different textures. Made this in my TM31. Thanks for the wonderful recipe.
Such a moist and yummy cake... Thanks for posting
Thank you I'm so glad you like it
Delicious & easy to make & bake - thanks for sharing.
Moist and delicious! Thanks for the recipe!
Lovely moist tasty cake. I made it in bundt mould and it only took about 40 minutes to cook. I may process the dates and walnut a little less next time. Not sure if I was meant to however I used reverse in steps 4 and 5 which seemed to work well. Thank you for this very nice cake recipe.
