"I did not have whole wheat flour, so I used 3 cups of all purpose flour. I also used 2 cups of chopped dried dates that I did soak in hot water. I also did not have walnuts, so I substituted pecans instead. Overall the bread was good in texture and easy to make. However, it could use some added spices, such as cinnamon or nutmeg or both. I do not know if using all white flour changed the baking time, but I had to lower the temperature 45 minutes into the baking to 325 degrees. I turned the pan around like the instructions said and then I had it in the oven for only another 20 minutes and it was done. I would try making it again with the addition of some spices. It was very easy and came out of the pan easily and sliced up easily.
