    Yield: 1 ½ cups

    • 1 cup pitted dates
    • 1 apple, peeled and diced
    • ¾ cup pecan pieces (or walnuts, if preferred)

    • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
    • 2 tablespoons raw honey

    Instructions
     

    • Chop dates in the food processor. Add the diced apple and nuts to the food processor and pulse several times to chop the nuts and thoroughly combine. Add the cinnamon, ginger, and honey, and pulse. Remove the top of the food processor and run a spatula around the sides of the container to thoroughly incorporate the mixture.
    • Pour in one tablespoon of the sweet red wine and pulse. Add a second tablespoon and pulse again. Add the last tablespoon of wine, and pulse to incorporate.
    • Transfer mixture to a glass storage container with lid and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. This can be made a day or two ahead.
