For an enhanced nutty flavor, toast the walnuts lightly before adding them to the batter. Medjool dates provide a richer, sweeter flavor than other varieties. If using drier dates, consider soaking them for a longer period. To prevent the bread from sticking, ensure the loaf pans are thoroughly greased and floured. This bread freezes beautifully. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then foil for optimal freshness.
