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!

Tips:
- Use ripe dates: Softer dates are easier to blend and will give your cake a richer flavor.
- Soak the dates in hot water for 10-15 minutes before using: This will help to soften them even more and make them easier to blend.
- Use a high-powered blender or food processor to blend the dates: This will ensure that they are completely smooth and will help to create a light and fluffy cake.
- Add a little bit of baking soda to the batter: This will help to give your cake a lift and make it more light and airy.
- Bake the cake at a moderate temperature: This will help to prevent the cake from becoming dry or overcooked.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting and will also make it easier to spread.

Eggless date cake is a delicious and healthy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a moist and flavorful cake that will be enjoyed by everyone.
