Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 What is date butter? Date butter is a blend of dates and water that have been heated. I usually use equal parts of each (although start with a smaller amount of water and add as needed). Heat the date mixture, stirring constantly. The dates will become soft and mushy. They should be the consistency of a thick paste to become date butter (usually thicker than apple butter). I like to use "date pellets" for this, as they are less expensive then whole dates and cook up quickly (but if you are gluten free, beware, as the date pellets are powdered in oat flour). I hope you enjoy the recipes using date butter! LaDonna "The spirit of hospitality can thrive in the humblest circumstances. It's a matter of opening our lives to others. . .giving them the best we have to offer, but never allowing elaborate preparations to substitute for the sharing of the spirit of true hospitality." ~Emelie Barnes http://www.Christian-Vegan-Cookinghttp://www.AllNaturalSweetenerRecipeshttp://www.VeganMenusforHealthyLivinghttp://www.
