3 to 3-1 / 2 cups all-purpose flour
2 envelopes FLEISCHMANN’S RapidRise Yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 / 2 cup water
1 / 2 cup milk
1 / 3 cup honey
1 / 3 cup butter or margarine
1 large egg
1 / 2 cup chopped dates
1 / 2 cup chopped dried apricots
1 / 2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
Powdered sugar
In a large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, undissolved yeast, and salt. Heat water, milk, honey, and butter until very warm (120o to 130oF). Gradually add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add egg and 1 cup flour. Beat 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in dates, apricots, walnuts, and enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
Roll dough to 12-inch circle; place on greased pizza pan. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Bake at 375oF for 20 to 25 minutes or until done. Remove from pan; cool on wire rack. Sift powdered sugar on top. Cut into wedges; serve with whipped cream cheese or creamy peanut butter, if desired.
