DATES - fruits of a tropical date palm, 15–20 m high, with remnants of leaf petioles on the trunk, with a dense crown of pinnate leaves at the top and cream flowers in paniculate inflorescences. Berries up to 7.5 cm long, elongated-oval, with dense reddish or dark-colored flesh, inside which there is a stone. Grown in the countries of the Middle East (the main food of the local population, of which at least 100 dishes are prepared; the subject of export), in Spain, the USA; in the southwest of Turkmenistan.

Iraq occupies the first place in the production of dates (about 350 thousand tons). Dried and dried dates are available for sale, which are well transported and can be stored at 0-2 ° C for up to 8 months. Dates contain up to 70% sugar, 2.5% protein, 2.5% fat, potassium, sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, and iron salts. Among fruits, they are the most high-calorie: 100 g of dates contain 281 kcal. The best are large, fleshy fruits with a shiny, oily and translucent skin.

[Ludik]

Ludik, cool pie !!!! Straight, I'll even do kaatsya ... more sugar is only 100g. !!!

[Lisss's]

Lisss's excellent pie, unusual, never baked with dates, bookmark and out of turn
And what is it covered on top of you? it looks very nice, but the recipe only contains powdered sugar

And I will tell you for the first time, Mel, that ... sugar can be reduced !!! See, I was already scared myself, why did I say that the dates are sweet, so you can give sugar and less

and it is done very quickly - nothing is whipped, not ground - mixed everything, and you're done

[Nataly_rz]

Nataly_rz, it is very tasty and aromatic try it, you will not regret

and on top I made him a caramel icing, but I don’t really like it - I can hear powdered sugar straight, crunches .. they eat this in the states, but somehow I don’t really like this crunch, so I didn’t campaign for it .. although it tastes good. give a prescription?

People, come on, of course. Well, until I try it myself, I don't believe anyone. And that a lot of powder goes into this watering if it crunches so much?

Natik, 320g well, I'll go up there in the recipe I'll give, what if someone else is interested, sho that is ..

The pie is very, very appetizing! I took it to the bookmarks.

Be sure to bookmark. I would have baked it right now, but there are no dates! Tomorrow I'll go to the store, and after work I think my husbands will appreciate it! Such a simple recipe, but the result is fluffy in appearance, it feels like ah Lyudmila, thank you! And what else is the top?

he is fluffy, yes, and quick show what happened, okay?

Of course, I will bake and take a picture, but here's how to upload a photo, well, yes, I think my husband will figure it out and teach me, I must start when that!

Lena, here we have a detailed description of how to insert pictures

https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=73109.0

Thanks for the link, everything is chewed, just swallow, I hope everything will work out (the elephant was taught to ride a bicycle in the circus)! Here's another with a cast-iron frying pan, people, can you replace it with something, well, to cook the caramel, or sprinkle the top with something?

Lenok, sorry, got carried away with photography, and forgot about the object

top - you can use powdered sugar, I feel better this way ... I didn't like this caramel icing, the powdered sugar crunches on my teeth, blah ..

and sugar can be caramelized, in general, in any pan, probably. I just had a cast-iron one, so I liked how it melts - it’s right into this kind of water .. beautiful ..

And sho, is there still no one here? Tada I am the first !!!

Well, sho can I say ??? This is NOT PIE !!!!! This is just an oriental sweetness and gut in one bottle !!!! There was no way to wait until it cools down, so I cut it warm. And how it smells !!!! Ludik, the mouse snapped at the most crucial moment, that's why it's so modest with emoticons.

shl. I think the program for baking Christmas cake is complete.

[Little]

Little, well, smart, well, well done! baked such a handsome man! glad you liked it

Oh, Lyudochka, 12 servings of pie .... for three for 1.5 "sitting" (from the word "sit down" at the table means)! Last night, as I came home from work, let's peel the walnuts right away (the dates were already waiting for me at home - my husband bought it). Everything is strictly according to the recipe. No glasses - she weighed on a scale with an accuracy of a gram, measured the water in a glass from HP. Kneaded. It seemed a little thin, like liquid sour cream, added flour, so that it would be thicker, well, like at least for pancakes (maybe in vain ???) In the oven for 200 gr. stood for 25 minutes. (heat convection mode). Got it out. I took a picture with my mobile phone (the cameraman turned out to have discharged batteries). I'll post what happened later. Taste - HOLIDAY! What to correct: I'm not sure about the consistency, I think it's better to extinguish the soda, and, as an option, 1/2 dates + 1/2 prunes?

Here it is !

and he

[Lenochka]

Lenochka, oh what a good one !! well done !!!

and added torment in vain! the dough, yes, this should be - liquid sour cream, due to this - the fluffiness of soda does not need to be extinguished, it is extinguished from the temperature, first with boiling water, then the oven

but about prunes - you thought of it cool! try, you will tell! I don't really like dates, only in this cake I liked them. and with prunes it will be delicious

Here's my pie, delicious, fragrant Well, it's impossible to come off !!!

[Gopher]

Oh, Gopher, uhta what a fluffy you got !!! sooo beautiful, smart hostess !!

Suslya, yours is so light, and mine is almost black. Are the dates different? We put that in fact one quantity!

The dates I had were golden, light so .. and everything was according to the recipe as taught by the great Ludik, and .. I reduced the sugar, but they allowed me!

Girls, dates are really different. I had these:

And mine is almost black and very sweet, next time I will reduce the sugar.

Hello again!!! The dates remain, but the nuts are gone! Therefore, here:

The cake is incredibly delicious !!! Photographed while still warm. The pieces that are in the photo were swallowed by my husband in three bites! At the moment, the supplement is washed down with tea and I tear out a piece for my daughter. Thank you very much for the recipe !!!

aha, Marisha, tell me a thing ?? What aroma, the neighbors did not come running? very beautiful, fluffy, well done !!

I am very glad that my spouse liked it, and we are doing our best for them, for our relatives!

[Lyudochka]

Lyudochka, it is great! The scent is crazy out of the oven.
And since I came to our site, the neighbors (poor things) live in eternal stress. The whole entrance smells like bread rolls, then sweet rapids.

mine, too, as I open the door, they say - well, how can you mock people like that ?? smells like !!!

[Lisss'sochka]

Lisss'sochka dear, I carry my thanks and low bow for a wonderful recipe!

I confess I mocked him, mocked him

In addition to the usual alterations - whole grain grains and whole flour, stevia instead of sugar, zero soft cottage cheese instead of butter - I also replaced the nuts with whole almonds, added a little blackcurrant balsam to the dough, and covered it with white chocolate cream with banana puree.

Sooooo tender, aromatic and tasty!

[Alexandra]

Alexandra, thanks for your attention to my recipe! really, the magic aroma from dates in baked goods? I have not baked with dates before, for me it was a pleasant surprise

[Lisss'sochka]

Lisss'sochka, the smell is delightful!

I once baked a cake with dates, and recently I added them to oatmeal-banana cookies - very well, they ate so quickly that I didn't even have time to take a photo

Girls, and I baked a lean version of this wonderful pie. She did not put the egg, and instead of butter she put margarine. The result did not disappoint! Very tasty, my nut flavor dominates. Now I will often bake like this. My husband, who basically does not eat anything lean, ate a large portion and did not even notice the catch. Thanks for the wonderful recipe!

[Funtik]

FuntikWhat a fine fellow you are, found a way out of the situation! beautiful turned out!

Lisss's, thank you and Maida
I have great sympathy for dates after I got acquainted with English pastries.
Your recipe seemed approachable and easy to make, however, my pie didn't rise. Can we fix bugs? I deviated from the recipe a little: I was too lazy to sift the flour, mixed the flour with nuts and took a baking sheet 3 cm larger.
It's a pity that the pie didn't rise - it came out tasty and juicy.

[Yaroslavna]

Yaroslavna, everything that you listed is not important, everything should have been ok.

I suspect a baking powder - it degrades its properties, if stored for a long time, check the expiration date. and it also happens to me - I took out a bag from the cabinet, and forgot to put it in the recipe anymore, I have no options ...

if the oven was not hot, it would be damp, it would take longer to bake .. so I think about baking powder

I'll tell you a secret, I have a lot of expired baking powder (somehow I bought a package and it won't run out in any way). He did not lose his qualities.
Baking powder quickly loses its properties if stirred for a long time after adding it. T.It is necessary to add it at the end, mix quickly and immediately bake.

Yes? did not notice such dependence .. you will need to pay attention

Frankly, I also have an intuitive complaint about baking powder, but I did not voice it out loud (because I bought it a lot, a lot). Recently, when baking biscotti, they stopped rising. Baking powder ARO, bought in Metro.

Thank you so much for the recipe, the pie is delicious. I never thought that date dough was so awesome. She did not pour anything on the cake, and so it went through my mouths instantly.

[Sterlya]

Sterlya, Thanks for the kind words!! I am very glad that your family liked the pie!

Luda, thank you very much for the wonderful cake, there is not even anything to photograph, they swooped down, grabbed the Smell, taste and color - just DELICIOUS !!!

Light, health! I'm glad I liked the recipe!
