This recipe really stands the test of time and I have been making it since the late 1970's. It is oat based and has no added sugar in the date filling. Made with a plant based or dairy free fat then it is suitable for vegans. What the current rage of clean eating, vegan and sugar free cakes, breakfast bars and superfoods then I suggest that you just give this old fashioned recipe a try. Dried apples, apricots and prunes all work well in the filling. Just substitute for the dates.

This is a fat free recipe for those looking for a dairy free cake. The dried fruit is soaked in tea to make it juicy and plump.Try making it with different types of dried fruit such as apricots, dates or figs and also different teas. Earl Grey or Lapsang Souchong both work well. The cake keeps very well in a tin for a week.
