Soak dates in boiling water for about 15-20 minutes- most of the liquid should absorb.

In a seperate bowl, beat together eggs and oil.
Blend together dry ingredients (except nuts) and stir until just moistened into egg mixture.
Fold in dates and nuts.
Pour into greased muffin tins and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
