Description

This naturally sweet and creamy date caramel is made with just a few wholesome ingredients—perfect for dipping, drizzling, or spreading with no added sugar.


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup Medjool dates, pitted

1/2 cup warm water or milk of choice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of sea salt


Instructions

1. Add pitted dates to a bowl and cover with warm water if they feel dry; soak for 5–10 minutes, then drain.

2. Place dates in a blender or food processor with 1/2 cup warm water (or milk), vanilla extract, and salt.

3. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.

4. Adjust consistency with a splash more liquid if desired.

5. Transfer to a jar and store in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Great as a dip for apples, spread on toast, stirred into oatmeal, or as a healthy dessert topping.

Add a spoonful of nut butter or cinnamon for extra flavor depth.
