I didn't know what to do w/ my dates....then a friend suggested using them in muffins instead of raisins!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup chopped dates
1/2 cup boiling water
1/4 cup applesauce, unsweetened
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions:
1. Place dates in a small bowl and add boiling water; let stand for 10 minutes (do not drain).
2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine applesauce and sugar. Beat in egg.
3. Add dates; beat on low speed until blended. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon; stir into date mixture with a wooden spoon just until blended.
4. Fill paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full.
5. Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
6. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.
