  • Pour in the boiling water, stir well and let stand for 15 minutes.
  • Beat the sugar, walnuts and eggs into the date mixture.
  • Combine all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Stir into date mixture until just blended.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
