Date-Nut Loaf - Tuesdays with Dorie

Date-Nut Loaf - Tuesdays with Dorie
Date-Nut Loaf

For this week's Tuesdays with Dorie selection, Mary of Popsicles and Sandy Feet picked Date-Nut Loaf of Dorie's book, Baking: From My Home to Yours.


My buddy Mary got to pick another Tuesdays with Dorie treat. (We made our way through all the bakers and some lucky bakers won a random drawing to pick again!)

Date-Nut Loaf - Tuesdays with Dorie
I made 1/4 the recipe and got three mini loaves. Aren't these cute?

One of the perks of making 1/4th of the recipe? That you have a leftover bag of dates to snack on! Have you had a date shake? Deliciousness. 

Check out the other Tuesdays with Dorie bakers and see their creations!

My loaves were filled with dates and walnuts...but you can use any dried fruits and nuts.

    Those are the most stinking adorable little loaves I've ever seen! Love the liners. And the cakes look good too...

    Date shakes! I've never had one, despite being a Cali girl. Now I too know what to do with the rest of my dates.

    @Anonymous I got the paper mini loaf pans at Surfas in Los Angeles. Surfas has an online shop too.

    I try to make minis just so I can give them away. This one was almost to good to do that, but....

    Love those little pans. And the loaf ain't bad either!!!
