DATE NUT BREAD (BREAD MACHINE)

Steps:

• Place ingredients in order given in bread pan. Set machine to quick bread/cake cycle, medium crust.
• After batter has mixed for 4 minutes, stir sides and bottom with rubber scraper to ensure complete mixing.
• Just before baking starts, pause machine and remove paddle (if your machine has this feature). When baking is completed, remove bread from machine, put on wire rack to cool. Bread slices best cool. Wrap in plastic wrap to maintain freshness.

DATE NUT BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350.
• Grease an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 3 inch loaf pan.
• Put the dates, walnuts, baking soda, salt and shortening in a bowl. Pour the boiling water over and stir. Let the mixture stand for 15 minutes.
• Using a fork, beat the eggs and sugar together in a bowl. Add the flours and stir; the batter will be too stiff to mix well. Add the date mixture and mix briskly until the batter is well blended. Spoon into the loaf pan and bake 40 to 50 minutes. Check the loaf often; it is done when a few moist crumbs cling to a straw inserted in the middle of the loaf. The bread will continue to bake after it is removed from the oven. Do not overbake, or the loaf will be dry.
• When the loaf is done, slide a knife around the edges of the pan and turn the loaf onto a rack to cool completely. This bread freezes well.
