1 c water

1/4 c Lowfat Margarine — **Note

1/4 ts salt

2 Egg Beaters? 99% Egg

: Substitute — ***Note 1 ts vanilla extract

1 c all-purpose flour

1 ts baking soda

*NOTE: Sally’s recipe used 1/2 C dried prunes, chopped…I didn’t have any at the time so I used dried cranberries. **NOTE: Sally’s recipe used 1/2 C margarine…I adapted it. ***NOTE: Sally’s recipe used 2 beaten eggs…I adapted it. ****NOTE: Sally’s recipe

used 1/2 C mixed nuts, chopped…I omitted them. In a saucepan combine dates, raisins, prunes (dried cranberries) and water. Bring to boil and boil 5 minutes. Stir in margarine and salt. Set aside to cool. Add remaining ingredients to fruit; stir just until dry ingredients ar? moistened. Spoon into greased MINI-muffin pans. (I spooned it into 12 regular muffin tins.) Bake in preheated 350-degree F oven for 15 minutes. (If desired can bake in a greased 11 x 7 x 2-inch pan for 30 minutes.)

These were FANTASTIC!! I had tasted them when Sally made them using her recipe…and they were really wonderful!! But I wanted to lower the fat a bit more and adapted th? recipe a bit more. I think they are excellent.
