- 2 ½tbspbutter,melted
- 1½cupsall-purpose flour
- 3½tspbaking powder
- ¾tbspwhite sugar
- 1pinchsalt
- 16ozdates
Instructions
-
Heat a small non-stick skillet on medium-high heat and add enough oil so a date can just float in it.
-
Whisk milk, egg, and melted butter together in a large bowl. Combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a second bowl. Whisk flour mixture into milk mixture to make a pancake batter.
-
Test if oil is hot enough by adding a drop of batter to the oil. Batter should rise to the top and bubble around the sides, browning within 5 to 10 seconds.
-
Dip 3 to 4 dates in the pancake batter until evenly covered and carefully place into the hot oil. Wait a few seconds for them to start browning, turning occasionally so they fry evenly. Fry for about 1 minute, until golden brown but not burnt.
-
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining dates and batter.
-
Serve and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Aside from vegetable oil, you can fry the dates in extra virgin olive oil or rapeseed oil.
