A crusty loaf with a soft, tender crumb, packed with walnuts and sweet dates \u2014 this no-knead date walnut bread<\/strong> made with spelt flour is wonderfully simple, requires zero kneading, and is perfect for a cozy weekend breakfast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve ever been to Berlin, you might know Zeit f\u00fcr Brot<\/em> \u2014 a bakery famous for organic breads and pastries. My husband and I never leave without their walnut date bread. Unfortunately, we don\u2019t get there very often \u2026 so I decided to recreate it at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike the bakery version, I intentionally skipped the sourdough. Don\u2019t get me wrong \u2014 fresh sourdough bread is unbeatable. But this time, I wanted something simple and spontaneous. Something you can mix together on a Saturday evening, let rise overnight, and bake fresh on Sunday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that\u2019s exactly how this vegan no-knead walnut date bread<\/strong> was born. No kneading. No sourdough starter. <\/strong>Just a simple yeast-based spelt bread <\/strong>that bakes up crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and beautifully aromatic thanks to the nuts and dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love it with savory toppings like vegan cream cheese<\/a> \u2014 but it\u2019s just as good with nut butter and mashed berries or jam.<\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n

One thing that always disappoints me about bakery fruit-and-nut breads? The \u201cfillings\u201d are often scarce. A lonely walnut here, a tiny date piece there \u2014 and that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not this loaf. Every slice is generously packed with walnuts and dates.<\/strong> You\u2019ll taste them in every single bite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
