Ingredients:

500g pitted dates

1 level tsp bicarbonate of soda

Enough boiling water to cover the dates

2 large eggs

500g self-raising flour

1 cup soft brown sugar

200g salted butter

¾ cup sunflower oil

1 ½ tsp cinnamon powder

½ tsp nutmeg powder

1 cup walnuts, chopped roughly

1 tsp baking powder

Method:

Tip the dates in a bowl.

Sprinkle the bicarbonate of soda over the dates.

Pour enough boiling water to cover the dates.

Leave aside for half an hour.

In a separate mixing bowl, mix the eggs, butter, oil together.

Add the brown sugar and mix well until the sugar has dissolved.

Add the nutmeg, cinnamon, flour, walnuts and baking powder. Lastly pour in the soaked dates with the water.

Mix well with a wooden spoon until the flour and wet ingredients have incorporated.

Pour into 2 well-greased loaf tins. Bake at 180C in a preheated oven for 30 – 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle of the loaf comes out clean. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before turning the cake out on a cooling rack.
