      Delicious, just made two. Fortunately I watched the video first however as there is an error in the written recipe ingredients. A quarter cup of cold water and 1 teaspoon of baking SODA is what it should read. The baking powder is mixed with the flour .

        (Then in a glass add baking soda to 1/4 cold water and add to mixture to cool.
        Pour mixture in large bowl then, sift in flour, salt and baking powder to mixture, fold together add mixed nuts until all combined.)
        I hope this helps and message any time if our recipe or video is not clear or something don’t seem right.

          Bonita,
          In the list of ingredients the baking powder 1 tsp. is listed twice, the baking soda is not listed in the ingredients, just in the instructions.

            Hi Linda, Thank you so much for taking the time to let us know about the typo. I did fix it and it was 1 tsp baking soda. This is a lovely loaf and very tasty. Enjoy 🙂 Bonita
