Date Loaf Recipe NZ | Edmonds Cooking

Ingredients

1 cup chopped dates
1 cup boiling water
1 tsp Edmonds Baking Soda
1 Tbsp butter (or Olivani Spread)
1 cup Chelsea Brown Sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 cup chopped walnuts
¼ tsp vanilla essence
2 cups Edmonds Standard Grade Flour
1 tsp Edmonds Baking Powder

Method

Put the dates, boiling water, soda and butter into a bowl and stir until the butter has melted. Set aside for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 180˚C. Grease a 22cm loaf tin and line the base with baking paper.
Add the sugar, egg, walnuts and vanilla to the date mixture and beat well.
Sift the flour and baking powder onto the date mixture, and gently stir to just combine. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin.
Bake for 45 minutes or until the loaf springs back when lightly touched. Leave in the tin for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool.

Subbed walnuts for dates, doubled the whole recipe, put soda in late after a trip to shop, subbed I cup flour with wholemeal, came out perfect again :)

Lorna

The easiest recipe.
I am allergic to nuts so I just doubled the date measurement. A gluten free loaf that last longer without drying out with the extra dates in. Easy, and very yummy recipe.

Phil

Yum yum yum! Added an egg, ginger spice and mandarin juice. Cut down on the sugar and put more dates in. Beautifully moist keeps well - just yum!
