DATE-OAT QUICK BREAD

Makes 12 Servings

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup quick rolled oats
1 1/3 cups (8 ounces) dates, chopped
1 egg
1 1/4 cup low-fat milk
3 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla


1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl; add sugar. Stir in oats and dates.

3. In a separate small bowl, beat egg with milk; stir in melted butter and vanilla.

4. Add to flour mixture and stir until evenly moist. Pour mixture into a greased 9x5x3-inch loaf pan.
