DATE CARAMEL

with apples <3 or even on a cracker with a gorgeous salty cheese. i make this weekly at least in fall and winter.

i don’t really use a recipe but linking one for reference. i just soak 8-10 dates in boiling water, drain the water off, blend with a few tablespoons of almond milk, a tablespoon of tahini or peanut butter (makes it extra creamy but not entirely necessary), a splash of vanilla and salt. you can thin it to whatever consistency you want with more milk or leave it thick and spreadable
