Ingredients
  

  • 100 g pitted dried red dates
  • 50 g egg
  • 90 g yogurt
  • 30 g vegetable oil
  • 30 g brown sugar
  • 1 g Salt
  • 100 g flour
  • 3 g baking powder
  • 2 g baking soda powder
  • 50 g Walnut

Instructions
 

  • Rinse the dried red dates and ✂️remove the cores
  • Add 100g of pitted red dates to 150g of water and cook over low heat for about 10 minutes to soften the red dates.
  • Finally, boil the water dry and let cool ~the cooked red dates are about 170g
  • Put the boiled red dates into a blender and blend into a puree. It doesn't matter if it's a little grainy.
  • Put the eggs, yogurt, cooking oil, brown sugar, and salt into a container and mix well ~(Sam's ingredient list says rapeseed oil, which I don't have at home, so I used corn oil)
  • Add red date puree
  • Mix well
  • After mixing the flour + baking powder + baking soda powder, sift and add
  • Stir roughly until evenly mixed, don't over mix.
  • Finally add chopped walnuts and mix well
  • Put the batter into the mold, and sprinkle some walnut kernels on top for decoration
    (I use an 18*9*7cm pound cake mold. It can be easily unmolded by covering it with baking paper or coating it with oil and flour in advance)
  • Put it into the oven preheated to 180°C and bake for about 40 minutes
    . ⚠️Every oven has different firepower. Adjust the time as appropriate until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out without any stickiness.
    ⚠️Bake for about 10 minutes. After the surface is crusted, take it out, use a knife to cut a line in the middle of the batter, and then put it in the oven to continue baking. This will make the cake expand more beautifully and have a natural crack~
    ⚠️Pay attention during the process. After the surface is baked and colored, it needs to be covered with tin foil. , to prevent the color from being too dark
  • The fragrant jujube paste walnut cake comes out of the oven,unmolds it and places it on the baking rack to cool
  • Cut it open, and there are walnuts in each slice, so fragrant
  • Pieces of jujube are rich in flavor, low in fat and delicious, with just the right amount of sweetness
  • It’s great to have one for breakfast or afternoon tea☕
