Irresistible date and walnut loaf is sure to be a crowd-pleaser!

Ingredients:

250.00 ml pitted dates, chopped
250.00 gm boiling water
54.00 gm maple syrup
312.50 ml plain flour
2.50 gm bicarbonate of soda
75.00 gm traditional rolled oats
143.75 gm walnuts, chopped
90.00 gm brown sugar
Light cream cheese, to serve

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease a 6.5cm-deep loaf pan measuring 9cm x 19cm at the base. Line the base and sides with baking paper, leaving a 2cm overhang on both long ends.
Place luscious dates in a heatproof bowl and drench them with a mixture of boiling water and rich maple syrup. Let them steep for 15 minutes to enhance their natural sweetness.
In a bowl, sift together flour and bicarbonate of soda. Mix in oats, walnuts, and sugar. Stir everything together, then add the date mixture and continue stirring until well combined.
Pour the mixture into the pan and level it. Bake for 50-55 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy with cream cheese.
