It’s smooth, creamy & sweet. There’s officially NO reason to eat regular caramel ever again!
Step 1: Remove pits from 2 cups of dates.
Step 2: Blend dates until paste forms.
Step 3: Add 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
Step 4: Add 1/4 cup maple syrup.
Step 5: Blend 4-5 minutes, or until no specks remain.
My favorite way to eat it is in my coffee. A caramel latte used to be my coffee order. I’m so glad I can now enjoy my favorite treat without all the calories and added sugar.
This amazing caramel is:
Incredibly smooth
Creamy
Amazingly sweet
Delicious with pretty much everything!
