Sugarless Date Drops Recipes

SUGAR FREE DATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Set the oven to 350 and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the oats to the food processor and process it into a flour.
• Add the peanut butter and soaked dates and process until the dough sticks together when you pinch it in your fingers.
• Roll the dough into tablespoon sized balls and line them up on the parchment lined cookie sheet. Form the balls into a cookie shape - they won't spread out when they bake.
• Bake for 10 - 12 minutes, rotating the cookie sheet half way through. Check the bottoms at 10 minutes - they should be brown. The tops don't really change colour.
• Let cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes then transfer to a rack. Store covered at room temperature for 7-10 days.

SUGAR-FREE DATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine the dates, pecans, water, banana, egg, butter, and vanilla extract in a bowl.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a separate bowl. Add to the date mixture and stir until well combined.
• Drop dough by tablespoonfuls about 1 inch apart onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten lightly with the palm of your hand.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cookies start to brown around the edges, being careful not to over-bake, for 11 to 13 minutes. Transfer cookies immediately to a wire rack to cool.

CHOCOLATE DATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Place dates in a small bowl and add enough hot water to cover. Allow to sit for 10 minutes to soften.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Remove dates from water, reserving soaking liquid. Combine dates, walnuts, and vegetable oil in the bowl of a large food processor. Pulse several times until mixture forms a paste and no large chunks of dates remain; this may take several minutes. If mixture is too dry, add soaking liquid, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a paste-like consistency is reached. Add egg and vanilla extract; pulse to combine. Add oats, cocoa powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Pulse until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Fold in chocolate chips; dough will be very sticky.
• Use a medium cookie scoop to place rounded balls of dough 1-inch apart on the prepared baking sheets. Press tops of dough down with damp fingers to flatten slightly.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are just set, 13 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely. Keep stored in refrigerator until ready to serve.
