Coconut and Almond Stuffed Dates
From: Linda Etherton @ glutenfreehomemaker.com/
Servings 8
Ingredients
1/4 cup unsweetened almond butter
1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 teaspoon honey
1 Tablespoon mini chocolate chips (optional)
8 - 10 whole Medjool dates
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the almond butter, coconut, and honey.
Slice each date along a long side but don't cut through both sides.
Remove and discard the pit.
Spoon about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the almond butter mixture into the center of the date.
Repeat until all the mixture is used up.
Sprinkle mini chocolate chips on top of each date and serve.
Recipe Notes
The texture will depend on ingredients used. If your almond butter mixture is too thin, add more coconut or try raw honey to help thicken it.
Dates: Medjool dates are larger than many other dates and work well for stuffing. Be sure to get whole ones. Fresher dates will be softer, but older dates work well because they hold the stuffing a little better. Either tastes great.
