- 3/4 cup Sugar
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup margerine, i use smart balance margerine
- 2 Eggs, well beaten
- 1 cup Pureed avocado(about 3-4 avocados)
- 1/3 cup Buttermilk (milk with a bit of vinegar will do)
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp Nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp Allspice
- 1/2 tsp ginger
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 1/2 tsp Baking soda
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 2 cup All purpose flour
- 1/2 cup Chopped dates
- 1/4 cup Golden raisins
- 1/2 cup Walnuts
Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the sugar, maple syrup, avacado, and margerine. Add the eggs, and fold in thoroughly. Add buttermilk, and mix well. Add the spices, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and flour. Mix well one by one, adding dry ingredients slowly. Fold in the dates, raisins and walnuts.
Pour into a greased 9x9 inch baking dish or cake pans. Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes.
Remove from oven, and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
I used a simple butter cream frosting and made a 2-layer cake.
