Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons rolled oats
1/4 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
9 ounces whole Medjool dates (pitted)
3/4 cup boiling water
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, oats, brown sugar, and pecans. Using a fork, cut in the butter until well combined and the crumbly mixture begins to hold together a bit.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter a 12-cup muffin tin.
  • Place the dates in a shallow bowl (in a single layer if possible), pour the boiling water over them, and let soak for 15 minutes.
  • Transfer the dates and soaking liquid to a food processor and puree until almost smooth save for a few pea-sized fruit pieces. Set aside to cool slightly. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and brown sugar. With the motor running, mix in the eggs, 1 at a time. Add the vanilla. Add half the flour mixture and mix until moistened. Follow with the date puree and, when thoroughly combined, mix in the remaining flour mixture. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and give a final stir with a spatula to make sure all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  • Divide the batter among the muffin cups. Top with the streusel and press down gently to adhere. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use ripe dates: The riper the dates, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
  • Soak the dates in hot water: This will help to soften them and make them easier to blend.
  • Use a food processor or high-powered blender: This will help to create a smooth and creamy batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin tins only 2/3 full: This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

These date muffins with streusel topping are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With their moist and flavorful crumb and crispy streusel topping, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
