Pistachio-Orange Stuffed Dates
Simple and satisfying, present a plate of these beautiful stuffed dates at your next dinner party and prepare for the compliments to roll in. A mixture of chopped nuts and orange zest are spooned into the center of the sticky fruits for a naturally sweet treat that tastes truly decadent.
Dates are nature’s sweetest candy, and stuffing them with citrus-infused nuts makes for an extra-rich treat. Choose soft, pliable dates that still hold their shape after squeezing so you can pack in as much of the scrumptious filling as possible. These simple snacks are an ideal way to end a big meal on a sweet note without stuffing yourself. Feel free to swap in any other nuts that you have on hand or add a drop of rose water over each stuffed date.
INGREDIENTS
- 10 large Medjool or Deglet Noor dates, pitted
- 8 almonds, chopped
- 8 walnuts, chopped
- 16 shelled pistachios, chopped
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped orange rind
- ½ teaspoon orange zest
INSTRUCTIONS
- Make a slit in eight of the dates, keeping the flesh as intact as possible.
