TRIED AND TRUE!!! This recipe was found among my grandmother’s recipe cards. Judging by the yellowing of the card, I believe it was probably written out sometime around 1965 – 1970.

4 cups flour
1 cup sugar
2 tsp salt
6 tsp baking powder
½ cup shortening
1 cup nuts
1 ½ cup dates
3 eggs
2 cups milk
Sift dry ingredients together and cut in shortening with pastry blender or two knives. Add dates and nuts. Beat eggs and add milk; add to dry ingredients and mix only enough to dampen all the flour mixture. Pour into two loaf pans and bake at 400°F for 40 minutes.
