Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Medjool dates
- 0.5 cup almond butter
- 0.25 cup almonds
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 oz dark chocolate (optional)
Instructions
Start by preparing your dates. Use a small sharp knife to make a slit along the length of each date and remove the pit, making sure the date remains intact.
Take the almond butter and, using a spoon or a small piping bag, carefully fill each date with approximately one teaspoon of almond butter.
Chop the almonds finely or crush them using a food processor.
Sprinkle the chopped or crushed almonds over the almond butter-filled dates, pressing gently to adhere.
Add a small pinch of sea salt on top of the almond butter for an extra burst of flavor.
If desired, melt the dark chocolate either using a microwave or a double boiler, and drizzle over the stuffed dates for a chocolatey touch.
Arrange the almond butter stuffed dates on a serving plate or store them in an airtight container until ready to serve. Enjoy your delicious, healthy snack!
