Yes! I've got a post on that, too, if it helps. You'll need to soak them first. https://www.perrysplate.com/2014/07/date-paste-best-natural-sweetener.html

Can you make your own date paste by just food processing dates?

In reply to Liz. Hi Liz! This recipe was intended to be a quick, Whole30-compliant version and not an authentic enchilada sauce. Nothing quite compares with ground up dried chiles, but this is a good sauce to make in a pinch. Whole30 requires a lot of prep work and not everyone is going to want to do that on top of all of the other food prep.

My mom's homemade enchilada sauce is naturally free of any oils. As a Mexican, these ingredients are a little odd, especially the arrowroot powder and date paste (we don't like our sauce sweet). And we wouldn't use chili powder; we use actual dried chili peppers and blend them into a sauce. But you definitely have to use cumin.

I just used it and my enchiladas were outstanding :D ! It's a great recipe and easy to make. There may be better recipes for this sauce, somewhere, but I haven't found any, and it beats anything you can buy in a can :D :D
