Ingredients

  1. 2 poundsdates
  2. 8-1/2 cupwater

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Place dates and water in a pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer and cook for 2 hours or until dates are very soft and starting to dissolve. 

  2. 2

    If you start running out of water add some.

  3. 3

    After two hours let the dates cool to room temperature

  4. 4

    Take cheesecloth and I used a potato ricer to press the juices from the dates. I did this in batches. Save the date pulp.

  5. 5

    You can put it in a ziploc bag and freeze or put into breads, muffins, and so on.

  6. 6

    Take the liquids and put into a pot and reduce till it's as thick as maple or table syrup.

  7. 7

    Let cool and put into a sterilized container. Refrigerate and treat as maple syrup.

  8. 8

    I hope you enjoy!!!
