Ronny's Sugar-free Fruity Spice Cake

• 1 cup dates
• 2 cups cold water
• 12 cup sultanas or 12 cup raisins
• 2 -3 bananas (mashed)
• 1 cup white self raising flour
• 1 cup wholemeal self-rising flour
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1. Soak the dates in the water overnight, then blend into a syrup.
2. Add oil and vanila essence to date syrup.
3. Mix the dried fruit and flour together, then add liquid and mashed banana.
4. Consistency should be slightly thicker than a normal cake mix, but still easy to mix, so add a splash more water if necessary.
5. Pour into an oiled rectangular bread tin.
6. Bake at gas mark 4 (180C/350F) for an hour.
7. Top should be golden brown and a skewer inserted should come out clean.
