Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup pitted Medjool dates
  • ¾ cup hot water
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Place the dates and hot water in a blender and blend on high until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
  2. Add the vanilla and salt, then blend again briefly to combine.
  3. Check the consistency. Add a little more water if you prefer a thinner sauce, and blend once more.
  4. Transfer to a jar and drizzle over oatmeal, fruit, or ice cream.

Notes

If your dates are very dry, soak them in the hot water for 10 minutes before blending. This passive soak is not included in the prep time above.
