ALMOND DRIZZLE

(From America Goes Vegan by Tracy Childs and Glen Merzer) 

This sweet drizzle topping is amazing on pancakes, waffles, muffins, or desserts. It’s a tasty and much healthier substitute for butter and syrup.

(makes about ½ cup)

¼ cup almond butter

2 tablespoons date syrup, maple syrup or paste

⅛ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

¼ teaspoon vanilla (optional)

2-3 tablespoons water or unsweetened plant milk (as needed)

 INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a small bowl, stir together the almond butter, date syrup (or paste) and vanilla (if using) with a fork.
2. One tablespoon at a time, gradually add enough water or plant milk to create a consistency that can be easily drizzled.

 CHEF’S NOTE

You can make date syrup by stirring together equal parts date sugar and water, or by thinning ¼ cup Date Paste with a teaspoon or two of water.

This mixture will likely thicken when cold. Allow it to come to room temperature or add a bit of hot water to thin.
