Bu Tarih Pastası is a delicious tea cake filled with juicy pieces of Medjool dates and light orange flavors. It’s a great cake to serve with a maple olive oil caramel or peanut butter caramel and a cup of tea.
I love making healthier cakes, like my Çikolatalı Hindistan Cevizli Kek but I also love the flavors of dates and oranges together, so I made a special cake just for that.

talimatlar
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment paper. Slightly oil the paper with oil. Set aside.
- Finely chop the pitted dates into small bits. I like to cut each in half lengthwise and then chop in the other direction to form small cubes.
- In a large mixing glass bowl, add the chopped dates and boiling water. Cover the bowl with a plate to prevent the water from evaporating. You will use this water in the cake batter. Set aside for 10 minutes.
- Bring back the bowl with the date/water mixture – keep the water – and stir in muscovado sugar, orange juice, olive oil, vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of orange zest, if you like its tangy flavor.
- Add in flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- Stir to combine and form a smooth cake batter.
- Fold in the chopped walnuts if used, and stir to incorporate evenly.
- Pour the cake mixture into the prepared pan.
- Bake the cake at 350°F (180°C) on the center rack for 25-35 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Tavada 10 dakika soğumaya bırakın, ardından soğutma rafına aktarın. Dilimlemeden önce birkaç saat oda sıcaklığında bekletin.

Malzemeler ve Değişiklikler
You only need a handful of wholesome ingredients to make these, here’s how to pick and swap them:

- Medjool tarihleri – They provide sweetness and moisture, and a rich, caramel-like flavor. It’s a date cake, so you can’t swap it.
- Su – Boiled water softens the dates and helps them release their natural sugars.
- Hafif zeytin yağı – This adds moisture and tenderness. Melted plant-based butter or other light-flavor oils are fine too.
- Portakal suyu – This adds a bright, citrus flavor. Dairy-free milk works as well.
- Vanilya Özü – Bu, genel lezzeti artırır.
- Çok Amaçlı Un – This provides structure to the cake. White whole wheat or white spelt flour also work. For a gluten-free version, use my glutensiz dönüşüm kılavuzu.
- Kabartma tozu – This helps the cake rise and makes a soft and fluffy crumb.
- Karbonat – This helps the cake rise and adds tenderness.
- muskovado şekeri – This sweetens the cake with a rich, molasses-like flavor. Brown sugar, date sugar, or coconut sugar also work.
- Tarçın – Bu, sıcak ve tatlı bir baharat tadı katıyor.
- Kıyılmış Ceviz – They contribute a nutty flavor and crunch. Chopped pecans or almonds also work.
How to Make Date Cake
This is a really easy cake to make in one bowl. Here’s how in a few pictures.

Chop the dates and let them soak in boiling water for 10 minutes.

Pour them in a mixing bowl and add all the other ingredients.

Stir the batter until it’s just combined and transfer it to a springform pan.

Bake the cake at 350°F (180°C) on the center rack for 25-35 minutes.
Carine'in Pişirme İpuçları
Let me share a few more tips to make sure you make the best cake you can!
- Check Baking – Don’t overbake the cake! Remove it from the oven as soon as it’s golden brown and a pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- More Crunch – Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts for a lovely crunch in the crumb
- Moist Topping – Serve the cake with caramel to add moisture – try my maple olive oil caramel or fıstık ezmesi karameli for healthy options.
- Sugar Needed – Don’t skip the added sugar. While dates are sweet, since they are not blended in the batter, they don’t sweeten it too much. Without sugar, the crumb will be dry and not sweet, the sweetness will only appear where the piece of dates appears, which to me, is not sweet enough.







Okay, there was a cake. And I’m not one but sorry that there’s not one now. Very tasty! This is a keeper.
Had to substitute with brown sugar and juice from some mandarins that I had on hand, but I can’t imagine this tasing even better.
Teşekkürler.

Thank-you for the recipe
Çok teşekkür ederim!
Kesinlikle lezzetli!!
Why does it need to be refrigerated?
It’s going to have to be warmed up to be any good after being in the fridge.
I refrigerate all my baked goods to prevent mold, especially when fruit are involved. But it’s up to you to store it in the fridge, or room temperature.
This is perfect without a topping or ‘glaze’. I zested the orange as well. This cake really is lovely for any time of day.
Thanks for the positive feedback on my cake recipe!
Wow! This is delicious! We didn’t have orange juice so i used milk. I am sure it is even more delicious with the juice… probably I will also be delicious with raisins or other dried fruit. Thanks!
I am so glad it came out great with milk, dried fruits will be amazing indeed! Thanks for trying my recipes.
What a great cake! And lovely with the caramel too. Everybody in my family loved it.
Thank you so much for this lovely review!
Would love to make this cake- but would you provide conversions to grams for cups of dry ingredients, and mls per cups for wet ingredients?
I’m European and haven’t a clue what a “cup” is- especially as you say the measurements have to be accurate. Also some dry ingredients would take up different space in a cup………????
You can convert all my recipes in grams and ml in a simple click, click the metric button before the ingredients and the recipe will convert automatically.
Delicious!!!!!! Easy to make. Not a sweet cake, which I like.This is a keeper.
Çok teşekkür ederim!
