Banana-Date Syrup

White Rose Child's Note:

Adds a simple, sweet touch to hot pancakes, cooked grains, scones or... I suspect anything else! This basic idea can be endlessly varied, of course.

This was easy to make and very good on a cut-up banana and also on some cornbread. Reviewed for Healthy Choices ABC.

What a fantastic and super versatile syrup!! My family and company loved it. I tripled the recipe and added about a teaspoon of cinnamon. I served it over an apple crisp, which was a big hit. We can't wait to have it on some pancakes tomorrow morning. This is a definite keeper!
