Grease a 12-cup muffin pan or line with 12 muffin paper liners. Put the dates and water in a food processor and blend to a rough puree. *Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl. Stir in the sugar. * Lightly beat the eggs in a large pitcher or bowl, then beat in the date puree and oil. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the beaten liquid ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix. *Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, until golden brown and firm to the touch. *Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then serve warm or transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely. Spread a teaspoon of Dulce de Leche over the top of each muffin before serving. (Source: 1 mix, 100 muffins, Susanna Tee- photo also)
