Healthy Date Caramel Dip
This Healthy Date Caramel Dip is the ultimate healthy sweet tooth fix! This caramel tastes identical to your typical caramel sauce except without all the artificial sugar, butter, and cream!! The things you can do & make with this caramel sauce are endless!! I love the classic caramel apples as an afternoon pick-me-up type of snack. This caramel is SO easy to make and all you need is a food processor, which makes for an easy clean up. This recipe only requires 4 ingredients and requires no baking or waiting. You can dig in immediately! It is also dairy free & vegan!

What You Will Need
- Dates - 9 ounces of pitted medjool dates (about 16).
- Maple Syrup - 1/4 cup of sugar free maple syrup, or any liquid sweetener you prefer. I use Lakanto sugar free maple syrup because it is low calorie and naturally sweetened with monk fruit.
- Coconut Oil - 1 tablespoon of organic coconut oil.
- Almond Milk - 3/4 cup of unsweetened almond milk (or whichever milk you prefer!)
- Sea Salt - For topping, optional.
How To Make It
- Soak the dates in hot water in a medium glass bowl for 10 minutes. Drain the dates.
- In a large food processor, blend together the soaked dates, maple syrup, coconut oil, and almond milk until smooth. Top with sea salt if desired. Enjoy!!
How To Store It
Store this dip in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days if it even lasts you that long haha!
