Ingredients

20 dates, (pitted)

1/4 cup almond butter

2 tbsp coconut oil

1/2 cup almond milk ((or other plant-based milk))

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/8 tsp cinnamon

1/8 tsp sea salt

2 apples, (cored and sliced)

3 tbsp caramel sauce

3 tbsp chocolate chips ((optional))

1 tsp coconut oil ((optional))

1/4 cup toppings of choice ((optional))

Method

Place dates into a small bowl and cover with boiling water. Let sit for 10 minutes to soften up. Drain.

Place all of the ingredients, except for the almond milk, into a small blender, food processor or into a medium bowl and use an emersion blender. Since we are not making a large amount of sauce, a smaller type of blender works best.

Blend for 1-2 minutes, slowly pouring in the almond milk. Scraping down the sides of the blender if needed. Dates can be a little tough to blend all the way, but scraping down the sides and turning off the blender and stirring the sauce every 20 seconds or so helps.

In a small microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and the coconut oil and heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each time, until melted. Mine took 90 seconds for it to melt. Set aside.

Place the sliced apples in a circular direction on a plate.

Drizzle or pipe (with a baggie or piping bag) the caramel sauce on top of the apples.

Drizzle or pipe (with a baggie or piping bag) the melted chocolate sauce on top of the apples.

Sprinkle on whichever toppings you are using.

Serve and enjoy!
