Date and Orange Cake
Tip
My step mother used to bake this.
She would skewer the top drizzle orange juice over it and sprinkle sugar on top to create a crusty top!

Made as per recipe and it was delicious! Needed a bit longer in the oven than stated.
I needed to use up an orange and some dried dates, came across this recipe and it was delicious. I did add 100g choc chips and a 1tbls Cointreau. Yum. Thanks for posting. I also cooked it in a slice tin.
such a lovely cake, quick & easy. I didn't have any oranges so used 300g cooked kumquats & 100g chocolate
This sounds delicious. Do you skewer the cake and sugar it before putting in the oven or when it comes out? Cannot wait to make this!
I love this recipe!!
I didn't have an orange so used a whole small lime and some mandarin segments. I also added some chopped walnuts. We absolutely loved the cake. Might try it with prunes next time. So easy. Thank you.
Easy to make, loved by my boys. = winner
This is an awesome cake. Very easy to make and is a hit with the family and friends. Mine does take about 20 minutes longer to bake but that could be my oven. Thanks Kate!
I tried these today, mine were so dry, can anyone tell me what I might have done wrong? This has happened a few times! Maybe eggs too small? Thanks
