Ingredients
  

  • 2 eggs
  • 60 g dates
  • 150 g ripe bananas
  • 100 g low-protein flour
  • ¾ tsp baking powder

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the dates by removing the seeds.
  • Blend the dates and bananas until smooth, set aside.
  • In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the banana-date mixture and vanilla extract. Mix at high speed until it thickens and leaves a trail (about 10 minutes, depending on your mixer).

  • Add the VCO and fold it in until evenly mixed.

  • Pour the batter into the pan, even out the surface by lightly tapping.

  • Serve warm.

Notes
