This maple vanilla date butter is made with just 6 ingredients and can be used as a healthy sweetener alternative or on its own as a topping, dip or spread!
Remove the pits from the dates and place them in a small bowl.
Pour boiling water into the bowl, just enough to fully cover all of the dates. Let soak for at least 30 minutes.
In a high-speed blender or food processor, add the dates, date water, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon and sea salt. Blend together thoroughly until fully combined.
Transfer your date butter into a glass jar, seal tightly and refrigerate.
