FAT FREE LOAF (WITH DATES AND CARROT-YUMMY!)
I found this recipe on an internet forum - inventer unknown. It is a boiled fruit loaf- super easy, and can all be mixed in the one pot. It is well liked by children and adults, and is nice with butter (not fat free!) Aparently if cut into 15 slices, 1 slice = 1.5 weight watchers points. This is great made with gluten free flour, it is also vegan.

Steps:
- Combine dates, brown sugar, bicarb soda and water in a pot. Bring to boil, simmer for 1-2 mins (stir a few times) then turn off heat and leave to cool.
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius Grease a 22x 11cm tin (or use baking paper).
- Add carrot to date mix (I just grate straight into pot) a 1/2 or whole apple is also nice grated in too (I don't wait until date mix is totally cool).
- Sift flour and spices together and add to mix. (I don't- I just chuck it all into the pot! Saves on dishes).
- Mix well and spoon into loaf tin. You can add extra water if too dry to mix well.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes Use a skewer to check if middle cooked.
- Note- if using gluten free flour (not self raising) add 2- 2.5 teaspoons of baking powder + 1 tsp (optional) of guar gum.

HEALTHY RUM, BANANA AND DATE LOAF CAKE (FLOURLESS, FAT FREE AND
BBC Good Food magazine has just started a new series called Eat Well and this was in the first issue. It's incredible! I made it and gave it to my parents without telling them it was healthy and my dad said it was the best fruitcake he'd tasted. It's really moist and yummy. It also works well with substitutions- I tried ground almonds for the cornmeal and chopped glace cherries for the raisins which came out really nice.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180 degrees Celcius,160 degrees for fan oven. Line a 2lb loaf tin with non-stick baking paper. Put dates in a small saucepan with 200ml boiling water and simmer for 5 minutes Drain the liquid into a jug and put the dates in a food processor (or liquidize- I used a stick blender). Add the bananas and 100ml of the date liquid and puree. Mix the nuts, dried fruit, cornmeal, spice and baking powder in a large bowl. Add the date mixture and stir until combined.
- Whisk the egg whites to soft peaks and fold into cake mixture. Tip into the tin (it will be quite full), then top with banana chips and sprinkle with extra sugar if using. Bake for 1 hour until golden and crusty and a skewer comes out clean. If it's browning too fast, cover with foil. Cool completely before slicing.

Tips for Baking a Perfect Fat-Free Loaf with Dates and Carrots
- **Use ripe bananas:** Overripe bananas are sweeter and have a more intense flavor, which will enhance the taste of your loaf. - **Pack the loaf pan tightly:** This will help to prevent the loaf from collapsing in the center as it bakes. - **Don't overmix the batter:** Overmixing can result in a tough, dense loaf. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. - **Bake at the right temperature:** The ideal temperature for baking this loaf is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake it at a higher temperature, the loaf may brown too quickly and the inside may not cook through. - **Check the loaf for doneness:** Insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf. If it comes out clean, the loaf is done. If it comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the loaf needs to bake longer. - **Let the loaf cool before slicing:** This will help to prevent the loaf from crumbling. - **Enjoy the loaf on its own or with your favorite toppings:** This loaf is delicious on its own, but it can also be served with butter, cream cheese, or yogurt. ###Conclusion
This fat-free loaf with dates and carrots is a healthy and delicious snack or breakfast option. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The loaf is also a good source of fiber, potassium, and vitamins A and C. So next time you are looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, give this fat-free loaf a try.
