I Show You How: Date Paste

Date paste is used for baking goods without sugar, sweetening dressings and sweetening smoothies. Unlike my date sugar which was an utter fail, this is pretty fail proof.

Take one cup of pitted Medjool dates and soak it with 2/3 cups of hot water

Let it soak for an hour, then put it in a Vita mix or blender to get one cup of date paste. It will be thick and gooey with a caramel taste.
