DARK DATE BREAD

    Dark Date Bread

    I looked for a recipe that tasted like the date bread I ate as a kid. I have made this one for years now.

    1 cup boiling water
    1 cup raisins
    1 cup cut-up dates
    3 tablespoons butter or margarine
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
    1 3/4 cups flour
    1 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 eggs
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 cup chopped nuts

    Grease and flour loaf pan, 9 x 5 x 3 inches. Pour boiling water over raisins, dates, butter and soda; let stand. Mix flour, sugar, and salt; beat in fruit mixture and remaining ingredients. Pour batter into pan. Bake at 350 degrees F 60 to 70 minutes.
