It’s easy and very quick to put together and I make them with raw honey and not sugar.
Ingredients
500g butter
2 cups buttermilk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
6X250ml cake flour
1/4 cup baking powder
1 1/2 cups sugar(i use raw honey)
1/4 tsp. salt
2 1/2 cups chopped dates
1 1/2 cups chopped roasted almonds
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon pd.
Directions:
Preheat oven to 180c.
Melt butter and allow to cool for 10 mins.
Add buttermilk and vanilla, followed by the dry ingredients.
Add dates and almonds.
Mix thoroughly.
I’m too lazy to roll into balls or bake it in a loaf pan and then slice it and dry it. I found an easier way… I drop spoonfuls into mini cupcake tins and they look so much cuter.
Bake for 20-30 mins.
Dry out in oven at 70 c for about 3-5 hrs keeping the oven door slightly ajar.
Enjoy!
