Notes

Medjool dates should be soft, best at room temperature. Always check the insides of your dates before using them. I have suggested what to do in the above article if you need to use other dates.
Coconut cream is the thick top part of a can (not runny), if it is runny, leave out the dairy free milk.
Once blended, store in an air-tight container for up to one week in the fridge.
This sauce is perfect with caramel nice cream - in fact I made it specifically for this.
Use this sauce to dip fresh fruit into or with banana oatmeal pancakes.
This vegan caramel recipe will yield just over 1 cup.
 
 
US cups and spoons measurements have been used. 1 cup is 240ml, 1 tablespoon 15ml, 1 teaspoon 5ml.
