I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds in the crust. They turned out great!

I've been making these date squares for years and they're always a crowd-pleaser. The only thing I do differently is add a little bit of cinnamon to the crust.

These date squares were a hit with my family! The combination of the sweet dates, buttery crust, and crunchy walnuts was perfect. I'll definitely be making these again.
