Detailed Steps for Making Date and Walnut Cake with Chinese Red Dates
First, we need to prepare all the necessary ingredients and weigh them on an electronic scale so that we can easily pour them in later.
Then, we cook the Chinese red dates in a pot until they are soft. After removing the skin and pits, we mash them into a paste using a spoon.
Next, we add three eggs, vegetable oil, and brown sugar to the paste and mix well.
We then use an electric mixer to beat the mixture until it forms a triangular shape when lifted.
After that, we sift in the low-gluten flour and add the walnuts (whole or chopped). We use a silicone spatula to mix the batter quickly and avoid stirring in circles to prevent the bubbles from disappearing.
Finally, we pour the batter into a mold of our choice and bake in an oven at 150 degrees Celsius for 25-30 minutes.
