Mom had whole dates that she wanted to use so she decided to make Date Nut Muffins.
The recipe:
Nine ounces of pitted and coarsely chopped dates, 3/4 cup boiling water, 1/2 cup of oil (we used canola), and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Stir these four ingredients together.
Mix in 1 cup all purpose flour, 1/2 cup whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda and 1/3 cup coarsely chopped walnuts. Grease muffin pan and spoon in the prepared mixture.
Good ingredients will make great muffins, mom!
Bake at 375 degrees F for approx 30 minutes.
Mom wasn't sure about sharing dates with me so she made sure that I didn't get any.
Sorry the picture is blurry. I get excited when good stuffs are served and they are really yummy!
The recipe is a keeper, mom!
Happy Tuesday, everybuddy!
Love ya lots♥
Molly

Now that mom doesn't eat any refined sugar, she uses dates for all kinds of things as a sweetener. It's amazing all the things they make from dates and she says it all tastes really good.

June here ~ something is wrong with mine Mommy! First she was sniffing her monitor, then it looked like she was about to lick it! Oh dear, I really have to stop letting her visit you on Tasty Tuesday ...
ReplyDeleteGood Golly Miss Molly I love muffins (our as my daughter used to call them muffis).
