The Banana and Date Loaf Recipe is a wholesome and nutritious tea time snack that you can have with no guilt and pack into the kids lunch boxes too. There’s nothing like a banana-rich mid-morning snack to keep those oddly timed hunger pangs at bay.

Banana is one of the best sources of healthy starch that keeps you full for longer, and when added to the cakes, it gives a smooth fluffiness to baked goodies. When combined with a silky date puree, it gives you the added benefit of an opportunity to reduce white sugar too, making this loaf great for nibbling on.

This is not really a dessert, but a snack cake, good for that energy boost for busy mornings, or a quick small bite for pre- or post-workout munchies.

Serve the Banana and Date Loaf Recipe along with a glass of Oreo Milkshake Recipe or a warm cup of Masala Chai to make your evening special.

Editor's Notes:

Did you know: Bananas are good for the heart, digestive system, and vision. They are packed with potassium, a mineral electrolyte that keeps electricity flowing throughout your body, which is required to keep your heart beating. Bananas' high potassium and low sodium content may also help protect your cardiovascular system against high blood pressure. Banana is easy to digest and chew hence considered great food for the kids as well.

Dates are considered good for constipation, intestinal disorders, heart problems, anemia, diarrhea and abdominal cancer. Dates are rich in several vitamins, minerals and fiber too.
