• pinch of salt
• 2 medium eggs (90 g)
• 80 g (1/4 cup) maple syrup

1. Preheat oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
2. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt.
3. In another bowl, combine eggs, maple syrup, plant-based milk substitute, olive oil, apple sauce and vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer until the batter is foamy. 
4. Incorporate the dry ingredients to the liquid mixture and beat again with the electric mixer, until the batter thickens (about 1-2 minutes). With a wooden spoon, add the dates and nuts. 
5. Transfer the batter to bread mold measuring  23 cm X 13 cm (9 X 5 in), greased and lined with parchment paper. (If you use smaller molds, the cooking time will be reduced.)
