Sweet Stuffed Dates
Course Dessert
Ingredients
- 20-30 fresh dates Medjool, Khadrawy, or Halawy
- 1 cup toasted almonds
- 1 cup toasted shelled pistachios
- 6 tablespoons honey
- pinch salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
- tahini to taste
- flake salt to taste
Instructions
- In a food processor, combine the almonds, pistachios, honey, salt, and spices until very finely chopped, but be careful not to overmix or the mixture can become like a nut butter. (If you don't have a food processor you can finely chop the nuts by hand and combine everything together in a bowl).
- Slice the dates down the middle lengthwise, removing the pit, but keeping them intact.
- Fill the dates with the nut mixture. Just before serving, drizzle the dates with good quality tahini and a sprinkle of salt.
- Store in the fridge for up to 1 week without the tahini and salt.
