INGREDIENTS

  • Wet Ingredients

    • 🥛 ¾ cup milk
    • 🍢 18 dates, pitted and left whole
    • ½ cup brown sugar
    • ½ cup vegetable oil
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (Optional)

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (Optional)
    • 🌰 ¼ cup chopped walnuts (Optional)

STEPS

1

Heat milk in a saucepan until almost boiling and stir in dates; let soak for several hours in the refrigerator. For best flavor, refrigerate dates and milk overnight.

2

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a medium loaf pan.

3

Transfer milk and dates to a food processor, add brown sugar, and process into a smooth paste. Mix in vegetable oil and vanilla extract with a few pulses.

4

Whisk flour, baking soda, and cinnamon in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Pulse flour mixture, about 1/4 cup at a time, into the date paste until the batter is smooth (do not overmix). Stir walnuts into the batter with a fork and transfer to the prepared loaf pan.

5

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
