About Date square
Date Square is a traditional Canadian dessert known for its rich, sweet flavor and chewy texture. Typically made with dates, oatmeal, butter, brown sugar, flour, and sometimes a hint of vanilla or lemon juice, it's a comforting treat that's simple yet packed with natural sweetness. The filling features softened, mashed dates, which are high in fiber, antioxidants, and essential minerals like iron and potassium, providing helpful energy and digestive support. The crumbly oatmeal topping adds texture while contributing additional fiber. However, Date Squares can be calorie-dense due to their butter and sugar content, making moderation important. Though rooted in Canadian cuisine, this dessert is enjoyed in many countries and offers a nostalgic and satisfying bite for a quick snack or dessert pairing. Perfect with tea or coffee, Date Squares are a wholesome and flavorful way to enjoy the natural goodness of dates alongside an indulgent baked treat.
