This cake is a great make-ahead breakfast or snack. It's also a good way to use up leftover dates.

I'm not usually a fan of date cake, but this one was really good. The bran gave it a nice texture and the dates were sweet and chewy.

This cake was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more liquid next time.

I'm not a big fan of bran, but this cake was surprisingly good. The dates and spices really balanced out the flavor of the bran. I would definitely make it again.

This date bran cake was a hit! It was moist and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweetness. I loved the addition of bran, which gave the cake a nice nutty flavor and texture.
