  • 2 oz Walnuts
  • 2 oz Cashews

. . . and process until almost a butter. Add . . .

  • 8 oz Deglet Noor Dates

. . . and continue to process until the dates are evenly distributed with in the nut mixture. Add . . .

  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp Real Salt
  • 2 tsp Ginger
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Cloves
  • 1/2 tsp Allspice
  • 1/2 tsp Nutmeg
  • 2 T Poppy Seed
  • 2 T Chia Seed
