Date Paste
2 cups date pellets*
1 cup hot water
Place date pellets in a bowl and cover with hot water. After 30 minutes drain off excess water and blend thoroughly in blender or food processor. Store in a covered container in fridge. I have kept this for up to 5 weeks in the fridge.
*I prefer to use date pellets to make date paste, because they are usually far less expensive than whole dates, and since I blend them up they work perfectly. I usually find them in bulk bins at Sprouts, or similar. I have a delicious treat using whole dates coming up soon. Can you handle the suspense?!? (haha)

Love this idea! Kimball is on board with eating healthier but it’s hard for him to give up his sweet. This will help.

That is awesome! Having date sweetened treats around is a satisfying replacement for me.
