The sweet potato cream is delicious and no one at my table could guess what it was! The recipe calls for much too much granola. When I make it again I will either leave the granola out or only sprinkle a small amount on the top.
For those who did not know how make date paste, FOK has a date paste recipe in the recipe tab.
How to Make Date Paste
to make date paste is 1 cup of tightly packed dates (about 8 ounces by weight) + 1/4 cup of water. I wanted to use as little water as possible, so as not to add too much hydration to a recipe when making sugar substitutions, but this seems to be just enough water to also make the dates blend in a normal food processor.
just search for date paste in a search engine, its not hard people… there are options to make it yourself , or buy it online.. stop freaking out.. this looks like a easy and yummy recipe, lets be thankful =)
Nope! The directions to make date paste are not in the body of the text!
Date paste instructions is nowhere in the body of the text above as suggested in a reply.
How could you make date paste ???
Could you canned orange sweet potato be subbed for the white sweet potato?
It is in the body of the text. Or, you could look it up under recipes at FOK site.
