One of our favorite pancake or waffle toppings, this fruity syrup has no added sugar and is only sweetened with dates! It’s perfect for kids and adults who are trying to eat only natural sugars. This syrup is thick and flavorful and is the perfect replacement for maple syrup!
Very Berry Date Syrup

Instructions
- Soak dates in water overnight or soak briefly in boiling water until softened.
