Preparation
1. Soak dates in warm milk overnite.When soft remove seeds & puree them in a grinder along with the milk. Alternately you can use dates paste available in the market.
2. Add sugar and oil to the pureed dates and mix.
3. Sift together the flour and baking soda and add to the date’s mixture one tablespoon at a time to avoid forming lumps. I prefer to use a hand mixer to get a smooth batter.
4. Now add the vanilla essence and mix well.
