I'd never heard of this cake, so I'm glad you posted it; it sounds like a good healthy alternative to my normal energy bar, actually.
Here's a recipe I found that has 216 calories per serving; don't know if you would consider that high or not but here it is for your reference:

Here's the recipe.

1 cup wholemeal flour
1 scant cup rolled oats

half cup sunflower seeds
half cup pumpkin seeds
half cup sesame seeds
half cup flaked almonds
2 pieces stem ginger, finely chopped
1 and a half cups of raisins
half teaspoon nutmeg
half teaspoon cinnamon
half teaspoon ground ginger
about 2 cups soya milk

30 minutes.
2 Heat the oven to 190 C/375 F/gas 5. Line a small loaf tin with baking parchment.

Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 1 and quarter hours. Test with a skewer and if it is not cooked0 -

Test with a skewer and if it is not cooked through allow 5 - 10 more minutes.
