SPICED DATE AND SESAME CRUNCHIES



Spiced Date and Sesame Crunchies image

The original recipe didn't have sesame seeds, which is an added dimension, and we're pleased they're popular with children since they're so easy to pop into a lunchbox.

Yield Makes about 18

Number Of Ingredients 9

225g dates, stoned and chopped
4 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 level teaspoon ground cinnamon
175g self-raising flour
175g semolina
175g block butter
75g demerara sugar
2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Put the chopped dates, water, lemon juice and cinnamon in a small saucepan and heat gently, stirring occasionally, until the mixture looks as though it will spread fairly easily. Then take the saucepan off the heat and leave it to cool. While it's cooling, mix the flour, semolina and sesame seeds together in a bowl. Now place the butter and sugar together in another small saucepan and heat gently until the butter has completely melted; then stir this mixture into the flour and semolina. Mix well, and press half the mixture into the tin, using your hands to spread it as evenly as possible all over. Next spread the date mixture carefully over this - again as evenly as possible - and after that top with the remaining flour and semolina mixture. This will by now have cooled a little and will probably be a bit crumbly, so just sprinkle it over the date mixture, pressing it down lightly all over. Now bake near the centre of the oven for 30 minutes, until the surface is tinged nicely golden brown. Then cool, cut into bars and serve, or store in a tin till needed.

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Fruit

Time 1h30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces chopped dried dates
hot water as needed
¼ cup toasted sesame seeds, divided
¼ cup chopped walnuts
½ cup whole raw almonds
½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 tablespoon coconut oil
¾ teaspoon ground cardamom
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Place dates in a small bowl and completely cover with hot water. Allow to soak until softened, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, but reserve soaking liquid.
  • Combine soaked dates, 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds, walnuts, almonds, coconut, coconut oil, cardamom, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt in the bowl of a large food processor. Pulse several times until mixture comes together to form a soft "dough," scraping down the sides as necessary. If mixture is too dry, add in some of the reserved soaking liquid, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
  • Turn out dough onto a piece of parchment paper. Roll into a 10-inch long by 1 1/2-inch wide log using lightly greased hands. Sprinkle remaining toasted sesame seeds evenly over the log on all sides, pressing them in gently. Wrap the log in parchment paper, and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 to 2 hours.
  • Remove log from fridge, and cut into about sixteen 1/2-inch thick rounds. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
