Provided by Liberty Mendez

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

125g unsalted butter, cubed and softened, plus extra for the tin
200g soft dates, pitted and roughly chopped
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
150g light muscovado sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp baking powder
225g self-raising flour
100g walnuts, roughly chopped
1 tbsp icing sugar

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter a 2lb loaf tin (ours was 22 x 10cm and 6cm deep) and line with baking parchment. Put the butter, dates and bicarbonate of soda (which helps break down the dates) in a large bowl and add 150ml boiling water. Give it a stir so the butter melts, and leave to stand for around 20 mins until the dates have softened.
  • Whisk in the sugar until smooth, then gradually whisk in the eggs until combined. Beat in the baking powder, flour and a pinch of sea salt until there are no lumps of flour left and it's smooth. Fold in three-quarters of the walnuts, then pour into the prepared tin. Sprinkle the remaining walnuts over the top.
  • Bake for 20 mins, then turn the oven down to 170C/150C fan/gas 3 and cook for another 45-50 mins until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave the cake to cool in the tin for 15 mins, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Lightly dust with the icing sugar and serve in slices. Freeze whole or cut into slices, then place in an airtight container or divide between reusable freezer bags. Can be frozen for up to three months. Defrost thoroughly overnight.

Tips:

  • For a smooth and lump-free batter, sift the dry ingredients together before adding them to the wet ingredients.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough and dense cake.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
  • Test the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or serving.

Conclusion:

Date pudding cake loaf is a delicious and moist cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized with different flavors and toppings. Whether you are looking for a classic dessert or something new to try, date pudding cake loaf is sure to please.
