Instructions
- Beat 16 tablespoons (220g) of the softened butter with the sugar, then add the eggs one at a time with the first egg well incorporated before adding the second one.
- Then add the flour, salt and baking powder and mix well.
- Line a pan with parchment paper. I personally used a pastry frame (7 x 10 in/17x25cm) that I put on a plate lined with parchment paper. Spread half of the batter in the pan. Level the surface with your fingertips.
- Then add the sliced bananas.
- Remove pits from dates, chop coarsely and add to the bananas.
- Cover with the remaining half of dough.
- Bake for about 30 minutes until golden brown in an oven preheated to 350F/180C.
- Remove from the oven and brush the top of the cake with the remaining melted butter.
- Sprinkle the surface with a mixture of sugar and cinnamon.
