Eggless Date Cake
A recipe I started making for my Muslim friends for when they celebrate Eid, and I was able to share with my Sikh grandmother who is vegetarian and doesn't eat eggs. I got the original recipe from an Indian cooking blog, but modified it to the recipe I currently use below. Now it's my most requested cake no matter what the occasion! Delicious on its own, with a cup of tea, or warmed up and topped with vanilla ice cream!
English Walnut Date Cake
This walnut date cake has been a favorite of my husband's since as long as I can remember. His mother, who's 75, always manages to bake him one every year for Christmas, though she claims it's always his last.
