Ingredients

  • 12 to 16 Medjool dates, pitted
  • 1/2 cup salted shelled pistachios
  • Optional toppings:
  • 2 tablespoons crushed pistachios
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1 tablespoon hemp seeds

Instructions

  1. Add the pistachios to a food processor and pulse until a thick, slightly textured paste forms. Do not over-process.
  2. Using a small knife, make a slit in each date and remove the pit, keeping the date intact.
  3. Fill each date with about 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of pistachio paste.
  4. If desired, sprinkle crushed pistachios, coconut flakes, or hemp seeds on top of the filling.
  5. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to eat.

Notes

  • Add a pinch of cardamom or cinnamon to the pistachio paste for a warm flavor twist.
  • Mix in a teaspoon of maple syrup for added richness.
  • For a chunkier filling, pulse the pistachios less in the food processor.
  • Use unsalted pistachios and add a pinch of salt if preferred.
  • Best served chilled or at room temperature — no reheating needed.
