Dates are rich in fiber, antioxidants, and essential minerals like potassium and magnesium. They are one of the sweetest types of dried fruit and are often referred to as “nature’s candy” making them make a great substitute for baking. They can even can be a replacement for caramel in some recipes like Caramel Apple Dip and Samaos Turtle Bites. These stuffed dates are so easy to make and are the perfect appetizer or finger-food for your next party! Since they are meant to be small bites and are mostly carbohydrates and fat, enjoy one or two in moderation as a sweet treat.
