- Chop or slice dates (should measure about 1.5 cups.) Place dates in medium bowl; add baking soda and boiling water, stirring. Cool to room temperature about 20 minutes, or place in fridge to speed up cooling.
- Position rack in lower third of oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Grease or spray a 9"x5" loaf pan well.
- Mix together flour, salt, and baking powder; set aside.
- Beat eggs in large mixing bowl; stir in oil, brown sugar, and vanilla, blending well.
- Stir the cooled date mixture into the egg mixture; add nuts and blend.
- Stir flour mixture into egg mixture just until blended.
- Scrape batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake 55-60 minutes or until toothpick tests clean in center. (This dark batter will tend to overbake in dark pans; shorten baking time as needed by testing toward end time.)
- Remove from oven; cool bread in pan 10 minutes and then turn out of pan and cool on wire rack.
- Yield: 2.25 pounds nutbread (18 large slices 1/2" wide (or cut in half for 36 snack size servings.)
