Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large egg
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
⅔ cup fresh orange juice
⅓ cup boiling water
3 tablespoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
¾ teaspoon salt
½ cup chopped walnuts
1 cup dates, pitted and chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  • Combine orange juice, water, and orange zest in a liquid measuring cup.
  • Beat egg slightly in a bowl. Add butter and sugar; beat until smooth. Add orange juice mixture and stir to combine.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Stir in walnuts and dates. Pour into batter and stir to moisten. Spoon into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and finish cooling.
