2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour 550 mL
4 tsp baking powder 20 mL
1/4 tsp baking soda 1 mL
1 tsp salt 5 mL
3/4 cup sugar 175 mL
1 cup old Cheddar cheese, grated 250 mL
1 egg, well beaten 1
1 tbsp vegetable oil 15 mL

Preheat oven to 325°F/160°C.

Grease a loaf pan, about 9 x 5 x 3-in/23 x 13 x 8-cm.

Put dates in a bowl and pour water over them; let stand 5 minutes.

In another bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add Cheese and toss with a fork until thoroughly mixed.

Add egg and oil to date mixture; stir well. Make a well in dry ingredients. Pour date mixture into the well; stir just enough to dampen dry ingredients.
