DATE BREAD
This simple quick bread includes tons of juicy Medjool dates, making it an option for breaking the daily sunrise-to-sunset fast during the holy month of Ramadan, a tradition that Muslims observe in Tanzania and across the world. The tradition is rooted in the teachings of the prophet Muhammad, who is said to have called for observers to break their fasts with dates. Many Muslims include dates on their iftar tables (iftar is the evening meal eaten at sunset during Ramadan). This bread can, of course, be enjoyed by any and all, year-round. It's wonderful on its own with hot cups of coffee like Buna (Eritrean Coffee) or tea like Shaah Cadays (Somali Spiced Tea with Milk) or topped with a soft cheese like goat cheese, ricotta, or cream cheese. It's also wonderful served in slices on a cheeseboard. If you can't find Medjool dates, use whichever are the plumpest, least-dry dates you can find or substitute your favorite dried fruit such as dried apricots or dried cherries (you need about 1 cup of your favorite dried fruit).

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
- Place the dates in a small bowl and sprinkle with the salt and baking soda. Pour the boiling water over the mixture and allow it to sit until it cools.
- Meanwhile, in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment or in a large bowl using a handheld mixer (or a whisk and a lot of elbow grease), beat the sugar and butter until creamy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until well combined, about 1 minute. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the date mixture (water and all) and then fold in the flour. The batter will be very stiff.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and, using a rubber spatula, smooth out the top so the loaf is even. Bake until the loaf is dark golden brown, a toothpick tests clean when inserted into the center of the loaf, and the bread is firm to the touch, about 40 minutes. Let the bread cool completely on a wire rack before turning it out of the pan and slicing it. Leftovers can be stored in a plastic bag at room temperature for up to 3 days (if the slices get a bit dry, you can revive them in a toaster oven or regular oven set at 300 degrees F for a few minutes before serving).

BANANA DATE BREAD WITH LIME
I was four years old when we moved into a brand-new house in South Windsor, Connecticut. One afternoon, my father decided I needed friends and walked me and Norman down to the local playground to meet the neighborhood children. Norman gave me strength. A sweet, fuzzy-headed, thumb-sucking baby monkey doll. To rest, he slipped perfectly inside an 8-inch yellow felt banana-shaped sleeping bag. Norman was my comfort and conversation starter when I met new kids. I can't decide whether I've heard the playground story so many times that I think I remember it, or if I actually do. But the vision of us is seared in my mind. My dear dad and me, hand in hand, me clutching Norman and his banana for dear life, silently walking down the street, both a little fearful about the next steps. Back then, Norman and his banana were my ice-breakers. Now, it's the banana bread I offer up as I walk into the new and unfamiliar. Neither has ever let me down.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch loaf pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda and set aside.
- With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter, sugar, and lime zest in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, 1 at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Beat in the banana and vanilla and fold in the dates. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 55 to 65 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for 15 minutes, then flip the loaf out of the pan, turn it right-side up, and let it cool completely.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe dates. The flavor of your bread will be much better if you use dates that are soft and sweet.
- Pit the dates before using them. This will make it easier to incorporate them into the bread dough.
- Soak the dates in warm water for 10 minutes before using them. This will help to soften them and make them easier to blend.
- Use a food processor or blender to blend the dates until they are smooth. This will help to distribute the date flavor throughout the bread.
- Add the date mixture to the bread dough along with the other ingredients. Be sure to mix well until the dates are evenly distributed.
- Bake the bread according to the recipe instructions. The baking time will vary depending on the type of bread you are making.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
