Old Fashion Recipes for Walnut Breads: Walnut Date Loaf and Orange Walnut Bread

Bread Pan

Walking into the house to the smell of fresh baked bread always brings to mind memories of grandma's house or coming home hungry after school and knowing mom had been spending time in the kitchen.  Following are a couple of old recipes retrieved from my mother's old tin recipe box that I got when she passed away.  Walnut date loaf and orange walnut bread can both be made with pecans, if you don't like walnuts.  However, walnuts have known health benefits and we could all stand to eat more of them.  Also, both of these breads make good gift breads.  Give as hostess gifts, take to the office, wrap in plastic wrap, tie with a pretty bow and give for Christmas gifts, etc.

Also, both of these breads make good gift breads. Give as hostess gifts, take to the office, wrap in plastic wrap, tie with a pretty bow and give for Christmas gifts, etc.

Stir flour mixture into the date mixture just until combined. Do not beat. Fold in walnuts. Transfer batter into a greased 8-inch loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 60 to 65 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool ten minutes before removing from pan. Finish cooling on a wire rack.
