Soak the dates in hot water for 10 minutes, then mash them once softened.
Whisk the eggs, tahini, and sugar in a separate bowl.
Add the date paste to the liquid mixture, then fold in the flour.
Pour the batter into the pan and put it into the oven immediately so the tahini does not sink.
Bake the cake at 180°C for 30 minutes.
Let the cake stand for 10 minutes before unmolding, so the date texture settles.
💡 Tip: Soaking the dates in hot water makes them easier to mash and blend into the batter.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice the cake, drizzle tahini over the top, and serve at room temperature.
