Sometimes you are just looking for the prefect loaf to make and its hard to know what to make, I have many of my website to check out. But this one can be cooked to ways, baked in a 400º for 45 minutes, and then if you don’t want to do that, then you can steam it in a pudding pan with lid for 1 hour and 1/2 on the stove top on a medium heat. It don’t matter how you make or cook it you with be over the moon with this recipe and the method.
I hope you have enjoyed my recipe and video for BAKED DATE NUT CAKE, you can never have enough cake and when its a healthy cake with dates that makes it so much better. You can change some of the ingredients to meet your dietary needs but don’t change the amount only flour, sugar, and dates if needed.
Remember if you don’t own a pudding pan it is a wonderful investment and one you will have for many years, LOOK AT THIS PUDDING ABOVE, I got my pudding tin at our local store but you can get them on amazon all different types and for cheap. You can also use this pan for baking and steaming for equal results and the convenience is worth it. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and read my blog and enjoy our recipe and video, please leave me a message or a recipe suggestion before you go.
FROM OUR KITCHEN TO YOURS, THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY AND HAVE A BLESSED DAY!

Delicious, just made two. Fortunately I watched the video first however as there is an error in the written recipe ingredients. A quarter cup of cold water and 1 teaspoon of baking SODA is what it should read. The baking powder is mixed with the flour .

Bonita,
In the list of ingredients the baking powder 1 tsp. is listed twice, the baking soda is not listed in the ingredients, just in the instructions.
Hi Linda, Thank you so much for taking the time to let us know about the typo. I did fix it and it was 1 tsp baking soda. This is a lovely loaf and very tasty. Enjoy 🙂 Bonita
