Date and walnut bread
Date and walnut bread is a delicious and moist bread that combines the natural sweetness of dates with the rich nutty flavor of walnuts. It’s a popular baked treat that’s perfect for breakfast or as a snack. The bread is typically made by mixing dates, chopped walnuts, flour, sugar, eggs, and other ingredients, then baking it until it becomes golden brown and fragrant. It’s a delightful combination of flavors and textures, and can be enjoyed on its own or with a spread of butter or cream cheese.
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the flour mixture, mixing just until combined.
- Gently fold in the chopped dates and walnuts until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
