Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set aside.

  2. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped dates and baking soda. Pour the boiling water over the dates and let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to soften the dates.

  3. In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

  5. Gradually add the flour and salt to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

  6. Fold in the chopped nuts.

  7. Gently stir in the date mixture, including any liquid, until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

  8. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  10. Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

  11. Slice and enjoy the Can Can Date Nut Bread on its own or with a spread of butter for an extra indulgent treat!
