    1 Line a 20cm square or round baking pan with baking paper. Blitz the dates and sultanas in a blender until a coarse crumb consistency. Stir in the ground almonds and coconut. Spoon into the pan and flatten out.

    2 Place bananas and strawberries in blender and blitz until smooth. Pour over the base and freeze for 1 1/2 hours.

    3 Wash, dry and hull strawberries. Arrange them whole over the top of the cake. Serve immediately.

    Variations

    • You can use frozen (defrosted) strawberries for the filling when they’re not in season.
    • You can replace the strawberries on top with blueberries or kiwifruit. Alternatively use strawberries, with a few blueberries thrown in.
    • If you don’t like coconut, replace it with ground almonds.
