    Date Crumb Cake

    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 cup sugar
    3/4 cup shortening
    2 eggs, lightly beaten
    1 cup buttermilk
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    3/4 cup chopped dates
    1/2 cup chopped walnuts

    In a mixing bowl, combine flour and sugar. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; set aside 1 cup for topping.
    To the remaining crumb mixture, add eggs, buttermilk, baking powder and soda; beat until smooth. Fold in dates and walnuts. Transfer to a greased 13x9x2-inch baking pan; sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture. Bake at 350° F. for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.

    Yields: 12 servings
