Ingredients
1 teaspoon walnut oil1 1/2 cups dates, pitted and cubed 1/2 cup walnut halves, toasted and coarsely chopped2 ripe bananas1/2 teaspoon baking soda1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt3/4 cup hottest possible tap water1/2 cup honey2 large eggs, lightly beaten1 teaspoon vanilla extract1 1/2 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
Preheat the oven to 375°. Coat a nonstick one-quart rectangular bread pan with the walnut oil. Set aside. In a large bowl, combine dates, walnuts, bananas (mashed), baking soda, salt, and honey. Add hot water and stir to blend. Add eggs and vanilla to the date mixture and blend thoroughly. Slowly add flour, blend well. The batter will be fairly thick. Pour batter into pan, evening out the top with a spatula. Place the pan in the center of the oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool for at least an hour. Bread can be stored for up to three days, tightly wrapped in plastic. One loaf makes twelve 2.5 inch square slices
