This is a delicious and unusual dessert using two of my favourite ingredients! The original recipe calls for 250ml sugar but I find that is too sweet for my tastes. Feel free to change the quantity back if you prefer something sweeter. Ingredients:
250 g butter |
200 ml sugar |
2 eggs |
500 ml flour |
1 pinch salt |
10 ml baking powder |
4 bananas |
250 g dates |
15 ml melted butter |
5 ml cinnamon |
30 ml sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 180°C.
2. Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
3. Beat the eggs in one at a time.
4. Add the flour, salt and baking powder and mix well.
5. Place half the mixture onto a greased 9 x 13 baking dish.
6. Cover the dough with banana slices and chopped date pieces.
7. Place the remaining dough over as a topping.
8. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
9. Remove from oven.
10. Brush the melted butter over the top while still hot.
11. Mix cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle over the top.
12. Cut into squares and cool on wire rack.
