Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Place dates in a small bowl and then pour boiling water over them; let dates stand 10 minutes. Drain; pat dates dry and set aside.
2. Place eggs in a large bowl and lightly whisk. Add bananas, applesauce, sugar and vanilla; whisk until blended. Set aside.
3. In a small bowl, combine sorghum flour, brown rice flour, baking soda, nutmeg and salt. Gently combine flour mixture and egg mixture, stirring until just blended. Gently stir in dates, walnuts and melted butter. Spoon bread mixture into a lightly greased 9- x 5-inch loaf pan.
