SUGAR-FREE DATE NUT MUFFINS



Sugar-free Date Nut Muffins image

"A delicious, moist muffin that uses dates as the only sweetening. Dates have essentially the same nutritional value as raisins, so these muffins are high in iron." Recipe is credited to Lori Morrison or Missiauga, Ontario and is from the La Leche League International Cookbook "Whole Foods for the Whole Family." Please note that despite the fact that these are technically sugar-free, dates, the sweetener in these muffins, are high in natural sugars, so diabetics, please be aware of this! Cook time includes soak time for dates but only includes cook time for 1 batch of muffins.

DATE MUFFINS

These muffins are perfect for Valentine's Day. "I love the idea of a 'date' muffin," Michael says.

Provided by Food Network

Time 1h10m

Yield 18 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the pans
3 cups water, plus 1 cup cool water
2 cups chopped pitted dates
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup molasses
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. Butter 18 muffin cups and line with paper liners. In a medium saucepan, bring about 3 cups water to a boil over medium heat. Put the chopped dates in a medium bowl and cover with the hot water. Let the dates soften, about 10 minutes.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the 1 cup cool water, molasses, eggs, vanilla and salt; beat briefly to combine (the mixture may look curdled and runny).
  • In another medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger and cloves. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined (do not overmix).
  • Drain the dates, discarding the liquid, and spread them out on a baking sheet to cool. Flatten the dates with the back of a spoon to crush any larger pieces. When cooled, stir the dates into the batter.
  • Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them almost to the top. Bake in the middle of the oven until the muffins are golden brown and spring back when gently pressed, 20 to 27 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer the muffins to a rack to cool completely.
