Ingredients

  • 1 cup Couscous
  • 1 cup Boiling water
  • 1/2 cup Dates
  • 1/4 cup Pistachios
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup Coconut milk

Instructions

  1. 1Place the 1 cup of couscous into a heatproof bowl. Carefully pour the 1 cup of boiling water over the couscous. Cover the bowl tightly with a lid or plastic wrap and let it stand undisturbed for 5 minutes, allowing the couscous to absorb the water.
  2. 2Remove the cover from the bowl. Gently fluff the 1 cup of couscous with a fork to separate the grains and create a light texture.
  3. 3Add the 1/2 cup of dates, 1/4 cup of pistachios, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, and 1/4 cup of coconut milk to the fluffed couscous. Stir everything together until all the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the couscous.
