Make this easy vegan date caramel sauce within minutes in your blender using just 4 simple ingredients! Perfect for drizzling, dipping or making healthy and decadent desserts.
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup almond butter 60 g
- 1 cup dry dates pitted (120 g)
- 4 tbsp almond milk 60 ml
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- If you don’t have a good-quality blender, soak your dry dates for at least half an hour in warm water and drain them before making your vegan date caramel.
- Put the pitted dates and almond milk in a blender jar and blend until a loose paste forms.
- Add almond butter, vanilla extract and salt, then blend or pulse until you achieve a smooth consistency without any chunks left. Stop and scrape down sides as necessary.
- Adjust with any components to create your desired texture and taste.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Notes
- We highly recommend using Medjool dates for this vegan caramel sauce but if you cannot get a hold of them, simply use another variety.
- Cashew butter, sunflower butter, soy milk, coconut milk and oat milk can be used for this recipe.
