Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
½ tsp vanilla powder
2–3 tbsp water, as needed

For topping

2 tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut, for topping (optional)

Instructions

1
Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy lifting.
2
Place the pitted dates in the food processor and pulse 10–12 times until they break down into a rough, sticky paste — the texture should resemble chunky dough with no large whole pieces remaining.
