How to Make Banana Walnut And Date Loaf
- Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
- Grease and line a 20cm x 12cm loaf pan with baking paper, ensuring the paper extends over the sides to allow for easy removal.
- Cream together 170g softened unsalted butter and 170g caster sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the zest of 1 orange and 1 large egg, beating until well combined.
- Beat in the remaining 1 large egg until the batter is smooth.
- Gently fold in 170g pitted dates (roughly chopped), 2 ripe bananas (mashed), 170g self-raising flour, 2 tbsp orange juice, and 100g walnuts (roughly chopped). Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If browning too quickly, cover loosely with foil.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 5 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
