Have you heard of coffee made from date seeds/pits? It's a unique and flavorful alternative to traditional coffee. You can also enhance it with ground cardamom for an aromatic twist.
Ingredients:

- Ground cardamom (optional, for extra flavor)
Directions:
-
Prepare the Date Seeds:
Start by gathering all your date seeds/pits. Preheat your oven to 350ºF (175ºC). Place the seeds on a baking tray and roast them for 20 minutes until they are dry and slightly toasted. -
Cool the Seeds:
After roasting, allow the seeds to cool completely. -
Grind the Seeds:
Once cooled, transfer the date seeds to an electric coffee or spice grinder. Grind them into a fine powder. If any large pieces remain, sieve the powder and re-grind those larger bits for a smoother consistency. -
Optional Cardamom:
If you'd like to add a flavorful twist, you can mix in ground cardamom with the date seed powder. Adjust the amount based on your taste preferences. -
Ready to Brew:
The date seed powder is now ready to use for brewing your unique coffee. You can use it immediately or store it in an airtight container for later use.
