Dates are nature’s candy: sweet, filling and full of fibre and minerals. Beyond iftar, here are five easy ways to enjoy them.
- Stuffed dates — fill with an almond or walnut.
- Date milkshake — blend 4 dates with cold milk.
- Breakfast topping — chop over oats or yoghurt.
- Energy balls — blend dates, nuts and oats, roll into balls.
- Natural sweetener — use date paste in cakes instead of sugar.
