- 2 eggs
- 1 cup nuts, chopped (I used almonds, cashews and pistachios)
- 1/2 cup dates, chopped
- 1/2 cup Figs, chopped
- ⅔ cup honey
- ¾ cup SOS Organics Himalayan gluten-free flour or Himalayan Whole Grain Wheat Flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- Soak figs and dates in warm water for an hour and set aside till they become soft.
- De-seed the dates and chop the figs and dates into small pieces.
- Also chop a mix of nuts, I have used almonds, cashews and pistachios and set aside.
- Lightly whisk the eggs. You don't have to form stiff peaks.
- Add chopped nuts, figs, dates and honey and mix with the eggs.
- Stir in Gluten Free flour, add Baking Powder and Salt and mix. Do not over mix just till everything is moist.
- Line a 9×9 baking tin with some parchment paper to that nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan. I have crushed the parchment paper and then opened and placed it, this trick will help it sit better. Preheat the oven to 180 degree Celsius.
- Pour the batter in the baking tin and smoothen the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes till the tooth pick inserted comes out clean.
- Remove from the tin along with parchment paper. Once the cake cools down slice it into squares.
- Serve with your favorite cup of Coffee or Tea.
