SALTED CARAMEL

If you want to make this a salted caramel I recommend adding a few sea salt flakes. Start with 1/4 tsp and add more as needed.

PAIR IT WITH

• a creamy, unsweetened overnight oats

• on pancakes

• use it as a dip for sliced apples

• stir it into your unsweetened yoghurt

• make this sauce with a thinner consistency and drizzle it over vanilla ice cream

TIP!

Using soft dates will make the blending process easier. If the dates are a bit hard you can pre-soak them in really hot water for about 15 minutes. Drain before adding to the blender.
