Honey Spice Cake: Healthy Holiday Bake

I have tried many of  Anita Bean‘s (The Runner’s Cookbook) recipes for healthier bakes as they are easy to make & delicious. This recipe came up on Instagram last week and I’ve made it twice already.  It is a delightfully light spiced cake that can be whipped up in no time at all.

Banana Walnut & Date Cake

Is this a banana cake or banana bread? I’ve done some reading and I don’t think there really is a clear divide or definition. Whatever it is, this is a wonderful recipe, taken from Anita Bean’s The Runner’s Cookbook, which is healthier (on account of the wholemeal flour, lower amount of brown sugar and vegetable oil) moist, tasty, and it keeps for a long long long time. I freeze mine and take it out over a few weeks  to refuel after my runs, or to enjoy with my cup of tea.
