Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2.5 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 0.5 cup Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 0.75 cup Chopped Dates
- 0.5 cup Chopped Walnuts
- 2 teaspoons Active Dry Yeast
Instructions
Add the ingredients to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, liquids go in first, followed by dry ingredients, with the yeast added last.
Start by adding the milk, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.
Next, add the all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder, ensuring they cover the wet ingredients completely.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the active dry yeast, taking care that it doesn’t come into contact with the liquid ingredients.
Sprinkle the chopped dates and walnuts over the top of the dry ingredients.
Close the bread machine lid and select the 'Quick Bread' or equivalent setting (if your bread machine doesn't have this setting, consult the user manual for best options).
Start the machine and let it knead and bake the bread according to the programming.
Once the baking cycle is complete and the bread is golden brown, carefully remove the pan from the bread machine.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
