Steps:
- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Butter and line the base of an 18cm Bundt mould or round cake tin with baking parchment. Put the flour, cinnamon, butter, sugar, eggs and honey in a large mixing bowl and beat with a wooden spoon or hand-held electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Mash the bananas and chop the dates. Stir into the cake mix with the walnuts. Spoon into the prepared tin and smooth the top. Bake for 40-50 mins until firm to the touch and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean (a round tin may take 10-20 mins more). Cool in the tin for 15 mins, then turn out and cool on a wire rack.
- To make the glaze, put the honey and butter in a small pan and bring to the boil, stirring until the butter has melted. Boil briefly, about 1 min, until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat and stir in the walnuts. Leave to cool until thickened and opaque. Spoon over the top of the cake and leave to set.

HONEY SYRUP
This is a great syrup for pouring over gingerbread, but it is wonderful on almost anything. For best flavor, poke holes in the cake with a fork before pouring syrup.

Tips:
- Use high-quality dates: Choose soft, plump, and moist dates for the best flavor and texture.
- Soak the dates: Soaking the dates in hot water helps to soften them and makes them easier to blend.
- Use a food processor or high-powered blender: This will help to create a smooth and creamy date paste.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
Conclusion:
This Honey Syrup Date Cake is a delicious and moist cake that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of dates, honey, and orange zest gives the cake a unique and flavorful taste. The cake is also easy to make and can be prepared in advance. Be sure to follow the tips above to ensure that your cake turns out perfectly.
