Date and Nut Cake is a rich, delicious and an excellent Cake that almost everyone knows. In this one, I have used almost all the Dry Fruits, Tutti Fruiti and most importantly Dates. I have incorporated Dates in this one for a lovely taste and flavour. A beautiful twist in all. Tutti Fruiti is an exception though. It's not at all mandatory.
It's an awesome one at that. It's yummy with the evening Tea. And is a lovely Tea-time accompaniment that's loved by almost all of my family and relatives. Iam sure it's the most loved one in your houses as well.
It's made on many festive occasions and is the most popular too.
This one is relished by my family on many a family get togethers and reunions. And I have made it exclusively in my own way. So let's get started then.
Happy Baking with Zeen!

In this particular Cake, the changes I have made are absolutely responsible for it's super duper fluffy texture and flavour too. The important change in this that I have made is to beat Egg whites until stiff and done. The yellow part or the Egg Yolk can be whisked separately along with Sugar and Oil. The second change that I have made is to use Oil instead of Butter.

Sift all the dry ingredients as we usually do in any Baking. Fold it in the wet mix along with all the Nuts, Seeds, Dates and Tutti Fruiti. Use Milk while mixing.

And then lastly, fold in the Egg whites slowly until incorporated well. Tap it once and bake on 160° in a fan assisted preheated oven for about 40 minutes or until done.

Slice and enjoy. Yum!

An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well.

Chocolate Chip Date Cake
Long-time family favorite. People rave about it, and in several instances, people were surprised that it had dates in it because they claim they don't like date cake, but loved this cake. The feature taste is more so the crispy brown sugar, chocolatey nut topping. The flavor of the dates is secondary but gives it that unique flavor – sending this cake to over-the-top deliciousness!

Never Know It's Good For You Chocolate Cake
I made this cake after I had made puff pastry for the first time. Although the pastry turned out to be delicious I was horrified at the amount of butter I had to use. So, in the spirit of a healthier cake but one that didn't taste worthy and good for you, this cake appeared on my tea table. My very picky family loved it and I will make this cake again. And again.

Banana bread is one of my favorite things. So I wondered how the flavors would be in a cake. It smells so good and I can't wait for it to cool.

Apple Cake
I love apples. Not only they taste good raw, they also have so much potential in them: apple pies, applesauce, steamed apples (traditional Chinese dessert, good for sore throats), and finally apple cake! This simple recipe my favourite kind of apple cake. Basically you can just dump all the ingredients into a bowl, mix them up and pop it into the oven and you're good to go! Pair the cake with some ice cream and that is how you spellH-E-A-V-E-NPS. I used molasses sugar in the picture, that's why the cake is dark. Any sugar is fine, I have tried using gula melaka (coconut sugar) and honey. Just watch out for the consistency of the batter: I had to add a little more flour when using liquid sugar.
Chocolate & Vanilla Marble Cake
I have been following the trends for 2018 in regards to cooking, not only for the Greek Cuisine but all cuisines and baking…there is one that I am so interested in trying…(The Japanese Cheese Cake), but some I am thinking No, due to lack of ingredients. 🙂 Some are just absolutely beautiful….have you seen the new trends for cupcake design just so pretty. 🙂Due to the cold front I mentioned the other day I have not been to the supermarket and so I went back into my pantry this morning and came out with ingredients for a really nice if I may use the word Vintage recipe for Marble Cake…:) Chocolate and Vanilla swirled together to make this simple but yet delicious cake which I think most of us do love to eat. 🙂

Carrot Cake
Like most women, I love all that is sweet but I sometimes feel quite guilty when eating large quantities. It's like I can't have just one piece and I believe many of you feel the same way I do. In this recipe I used a very small amount of oil and less sugar than in the original one so feel free to have not one, not two, but as many pieces of this cake as you like! Also, it's a very quick and tasty desert you can make when you don't have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen so when you're in a hurry and you're craving something sweet, this is the recipe for you. Have fun making it! I’d love to see all your beautiful photos, so feel free to post them and don’t forget to leave a comment!
Sour cream pound cake (for trifle)
This is the recipe I use for my strawberry cheesecake trifle.( I have a easy recipe for that as well.) This pound cake is so easy and you should already have everything on hand. Can add a zest of a lemon 🍋 or an orange 🍊.but I have left that out , iam sure that would be great in the Trifle as well.

Boozy Christmas Rich Fruit Bundt Cake - My Way!
A Traditional Christmas Fruit Cake is tasty and moist and is baked in most homes and gifted to friends and family. This recipe for Christmas fruitcake is different and is healthy!! It is a revamped version of the traditional fruitcake. Dried apricots, figs, dates, sultanas, raisins, and a whole lot of nuts gives the cake a moist and sublime flavor. The cake is particularly healthy because as opposed to the traditional cake, it is prepared with whole wheat, jowar/sorghum flour, amaranth flour and almond meal. The recipe also contains the goodness of cane sugar which replaces any refined sugars.This moist Christmas Cake is a delight of divine spices, fruit, nuts and booze, it hits all the right notes.

Yes I put avocado twist in my cake and lots of nuts so lets see what the details of recipe
Best Chocolate Cake Ever-Trust Me!
I woke up with a crave attack and was in need of a moist chocolate cake. Up until then, I had never made one from scratch before so I started scouring the Internet and I came across this one. I tweaked it just a bit (instead of espresso powder, I used instant coffee and I added it to the water to dissolve). You will never need another chocolate cake recipe after trying this one. My husband is not a chocolate cake fan but he loves this one!

Queen Elizabeth Cake (with Dates and Coconut)
I tried this cake at the Boulangerie Le Pain dans les Voiles in Montréal and liked its combination of dates and coconut. Apparently it was named after the Queen of Canada, Elizabeth II, and probably created in 1953 to celebrate her coronation. Or was it invented in 1937 for the coronation of King George VI and named after his wife, Queen Elizabeth? Regardless of its origin, the cake is delicious.

Piña Colada-style Cake
My husband wanted to eat a summer-style cake, so I made one that suited his tastes by referring to a few different recipes I found in an American cooking magazine.The coconut will burn easily, so be careful. The coconut in the photo was burned slightly in Step 1. You can use plain yoghurt instead of sour cream. It will have a lighter finish. Drain the pineapple well before adding it. If you don't, the cake will have a sticky finish. Recipe by Mama Imani
Any Flavor Buttercup Cake
This is a one layer cake I made up. I have a wild hog I found injured and abandoned as a baby that is now a full grown spoiled princess her name is Buttercup. She loves sweets I make these cakes as treats for her but my family loves them too. Give this a try it's easy and amazing!

It’s my second time making it. Be sure to let the sugar burn slightly in the pan, it will give more flavour to the cake and also the colour.
