About

Often called the ‘Cadillac of dates’, Medjool dates have a thick, meaty flesh and a soft, chewy texture… Just like caramel! With their sweet taste and lovely aromatic flavour, Medjool dates are exceptionally delicious. Because of their high natural sugar content, Medjools will sometimes form a white powder film on their skin, which is just the sugar coming to the surface and has no effect on their flavour. Dates are high in health-promoting minerals and dietary fibre so make the perfect snack food just as they are.

Uses

Snack on dates on their own for a nourishing, sweet and satiating snack food. Roughly chop whole dates, de-pit them and mix with a range of nuts and seeds into the ultimate trail mix. Dates are super versatile when making raw foods, as they naturally sweeten and give a delightful, caramel-like texture to many foods. This Raw Vegan Caramel Slice and these Mango Raw Cheesecakes use dates to create raw, creamy, layered delights that are sure to please the crowds. Dates are a wonderful natural sweetener for smoothies, not only sweetening up the flavour but also providing a creamy and moreis consistency. This Vegan Nutella Smoothie Bowl and 5 Ingredient Acai Bowl are both delicious smoothie options that have been naturally sweetened and thickened with dates, perfect for breakfast or snack-time. If you’re whipping up a dessert for the family, try this Salted Caramel Fudge Brownie or this Sticky Date Pudding, both sweet and delectable. For some recipes a little outside of the box using dates, try these amazing Raw Doughnuts or this healthy take on the classic Chocolate Magnum. You can see how dates are a great pantry staple.
