Chop the dates. Soak in a small bowl in the water with the raisins in the refrigerator overnight. If necessary stir in between. Finely puree the swollen fruits. Stir in the ground almonds. Season to taste with salt, cinnamon and powdered cloves.
The spread can be kept in the refrigerator for approx. 1 week in a sealed jar.
Instead of dates, you can use other dried fruit, such as B. Use apricots, plums and figs. The spices can also be modified accordingly, e.g., ginger, cardamom or anise. Instead of nuts, sesame seeds or coconut flakes also taste very good.
