Soak the dates in a bowl of water for 5-10 minutes to soften.

Preheat oven to 180 C (350 F).

Grind the oats in a blender or food processor until they reach a flour-like consistency.

In a large bowl, mix the ground oats, ground almonds, baking powder, cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Drain the soaked dates and mash them with the peeled bananas using a fork.

Mix the mashed dates and bananas with the milk of choice.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly to combine.

Grease a standard size bread tin.

Pour the batter into the greased bread tin and spread evenly.

Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

The bread should feel slightly firm when done.

Allow the banana bread to cool down completely before serving.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
