British Date and Walnut Loaf Cake image

This is an easy recipe to follow and it's great for any occasion. It's a very moist loaf cake, ideally cut into slices and buttered. It keeps very well in an airtight container - it usually doesn't last longer than a day in my house before it's all gone! [Recipe originally submitted to Allrecipes.co.uk]

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
½ cup unsalted butter, softened, 1 stick
1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9x5-inch (22 x 12 cm) loaf pan with nonstick spray and line with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and beat to incorporate, scraping down the side of the bowl between additions.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the sour cream, lemon juice and zest, and vanilla until smooth.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Alternately add the dry and wet ingredients to the batter, about ⅓ at a time, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat between each addition until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely in the pan, about 1 hour.
  • Make the lemon icing: Sift the powdered sugar into a medium bowl. Add the lemon juice and milk and whisk until smooth.
  • Pour the icing evenly over the top of the cake, spreading to reach the edges of the pan. Let the glaze set completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Transfer to a serving platter, slice, and serve.
  • Enjoy!

  • Mix the juice of the lemon with the half cup of sugar and pour it over the hot cake as soon as you take it out of the oven.
  • As ovens vary, check that the cake is cooked by inserting a skewer into it when you think it is cooked. If the skewer comes out clean, it is cooked, but if the skewer comes out gloopy, it needs a bit more baking. If you haven't got a skewer, use a small sharp knife.
