Sweet dates and crunchy walnuts make this einkorn quick bread deliciously different. It's easy to make and great for breakfast or as a healthy snack. To make your own date paste, simply soak 200 grams of pitted dates in water or tea overnight, drain and process until completely smooth.
| Dry Ingredients | Wet Ingredients |
- 200 g Einkorn berries, ground into flour
- 50 g Walnuts, ground into flour
- 2 tsp Baking soda
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon powder
- 1 tsp Ginger powder
- Large pinch of sea salt
- 50 g Walnut halves for topping
|
- 3 Medium eggs, at room-temperature
- 250 g Date paste
- 60 g Kefir
- 60 g Flaxseed oil
- 20 g Roasted sesame seed oil
- 1 tbsp Maple syrup
|
- Preheat the oven to 160C/320F. Grease a standard-size loaf pan and line the bottom with a piece of parchment paper and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine einkorn flour, walnut flour, baking soda, spices and salt. Whisk until well combined.
- In another large bowl, combine the eggs, date paste, kefir, flaxseed oil, sesame oil, and maple syrup. Whisk vigorously until well combined, then add in the flour mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until completely incorporated.
- Spread the batter to the prepared loaf pan and top with walnut halves. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes until the top is nicely golden brown and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

ReplyDeleteDate and walnut bread was one of the first cakes I ever made. I would have used wholemeal flour, but I think I prefer your version with ground walnuts and date paste. Fantastic. Good to see you using kefir :)
ReplyDelete@Tricia Buice Spelt would be just as great, Tricia.
ReplyDeletewow.. This is awesome and Yummy. I'll soon try this.
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely a very interesting and unusual cake (at least to me). Would the sesame oil fragrance be overpowering in the cake? Thank you for introducing such an awesome cake.
ReplyDeleteWow, the loaf looks so good, such delicious ingredients and I would love to try out sesame oil in baking..
ReplyDeleteAnother delicious and healthy loaf of bread and so easy to make.

ReplyDeleteAngie,
ReplyDeletethis bread looks SOOOOOOOOOO darn gooood!!))))

ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty loaf, this would be perfect with chai! yum!
ReplyDeleteLove.
ReplyDeletei love walnuts in breads! what great ingredients. i haven't baked with kefir, but i like the looks of what it helps produce!
ReplyDelete@Veronica Ng I actually was planning to use walnut oil, but didn't realize that I didn't have any left. That's why I used sesame oil and I didn't find it overpowering, but you can use cold pressed sesame seed oil which is not toasted and not as aromatic as toasted version.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quick bread, Angie! Love all those warm spices. I would love to have some for breakfast soon! :)
ReplyDeleteSUGAR FREE FOR THE FRIGGIN' WIN! You know me! I love sugar-free everything cause in my PERSONAL opinion sugar is the devil and ... My body can't actually process it! And you know what? I am actually THANKFUL for that LOL!
ReplyDeleteWow, such a great looking loaf. Full of goodness, including loads of flavor. Good stuff -- thanks.
ReplyDeleteI bought some date paste some months ago but haven't used it yet. This sounds like a delicious way of using it.
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious. I'd love a slice... please :-)
ReplyDeleteThis bread looks perfect, I bet it tastes perfect too!

ReplyDeleteDear Angie, This is wonderful. Growing up my mother always gave me date-nut bread with cream cheese. This is a delicious version. xo Catherine
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty loaf! Walnuts and ginger is always a good combo ;)
ReplyDeleteLooks really delicious, the dates and walnuts are such a great combination. Love it!!
ReplyDeleteAngie, I can see that you've stopped using common white flour for a very long time. I wish I can find better quality flour here. But always too expensive to purchase them. The texture looks so good. Very fine crumb!
ReplyDeleteDumpling festival is just at the corner. Hope you'll have a great time chatting with your family. >o<
Blessings, Kristy
Wow this looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteOlga
