Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides to easily lift the cake out later.

Place the pitted dates in a medium bowl. Pour 1/2 cup of hot water over them and let them soak for 5-10 minutes to soften.

In a large bowl, combine the softened dates (with their soaking water), eggs, olive oil, and maple syrup. Use an immersion blender to blend the mixture until completely smooth and creamy. Alternatively, transfer to a regular blender and blend until smooth.

Add the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Mix with a spatula until just combined and a thick, smooth cake batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.

In a small bowl, combine the coconut sugar, 1 tablespoon of cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons of hot water. Mix until a thick, crumbly paste forms. Dollop this mixture over the top of the cake batter and gently swirl it in with a knife or skewer, creating a cinnamon roll effect.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before lifting it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

While the cake cools, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and dairy-free milk until smooth and pourable.

Once the cake is completely cool, generously drizzle the glaze over the top. Slice into squares and serve.
