RE: Date Squares (or Pie in my Case) Recipe - My Review

in Foodies Bee Hive • 4 years ago

Oh! Looks good and yeah, sweet. 😊 Coz dates are already sweet as they are. Imagine upon eating a piece or two of dates we already have enough sugar rush... But I think they'd be good power bites or something. If I were to try making this I think I'd skip the sugar on the dates filling altogether since the oats crisps would have sugar anyway.

Sort:  

Yes, you are right, dates are sweet already. That's why I regret following the recipe by the dot. It felt like eating sugar with a spoon.
You can definitely skip the sugar in the filling and still reduce it by half in the oats crisps. I believe it would still be sweet enough and tasty.
I'm surprised how a lot of comments on the recipe say that it's the perfect sweetness. We must have been using different products or a different scale.
Should I have more dates available in the future I might try it again
