Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Add the date puree to the egg mixture and mix until well combined.

Step 8
If using, fold in the chopped walnuts.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are firm and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
