Pecan cinnamon toffee cake instructions
- Put 100g pecans into food processor and grind until finely chopped.
- Put dates into a small saucepan, cover with water and boil for 5minutes until soft. Drain and then put in food processor and whizz until smooth - allow to cool.
- Heat oven to 180°C/Gan160°C/Gas 4. Line the bottom of 23cm cake tin.
- Beat butter, sugar and cinnamon together until light and creamy.
- Tip in the ground pecans, date paste and eggs. Beat until smooth.
- Sieve in the flour and carefully fold into the mixture.
- Pour into cake tin, smooth out the top then scatter the rest of the pecans, careful not to push them into the surface. I like to start with placing whole halves and then break up the rest and scatter.
- Bake for 40 minutes or until a skewer come out clean. Cool on a wire rack then cut a big slice and enjoy.

Add flour mixture to butter mixture, beating just until dry ingredients are moist.
