Safta’s Sephardic Charoset for Passover
Passover is just around the corner and I wanted to share my Safta’s Charoset recipe with you! I’ve shared this recipe on my Instagram before but it deserved a permanent spot on the blog too!
Charoset is a sweet, dark, chunky paste made of fruits and nuts. My family follows more of the Sephardic traditions during the holidays and therefor our charoset is made with a base of dates, apples, nuts and wine! It’s delish and perfect to have all week long, Passover or not!
Safta and I can’t wait to hear your reviews, be sure to leave a comment below! 👵🏻💙✡️

1 pound pitted dates
1 apple peeled & chopped into large chunks
1 1/2 cups walnuts
1 cup Manischewitz wine
1/3 cup agave nectar
1 tsp cinnamon
I N S T R U C T I O N S
Soften the dates by placing them in a glass bowl and pouring boiling water over them. Let them sit in the water for about 10 minutes.
Drain the dates & place them into the food processor along with the chopped apple, and walnuts. Process.
After a few minutes scrape down the sides with a spatula. Add the wine, cinnamon, agave nectar and process until the mixture is smooth.
N O T E S
Feel free to add more dates, agave, cinnamon, apples, and walnuts to the charoset to your taste. The charoset can last in the fridge for about 7-10 days.
