  • 12 Medjool dates, pitted*

  • 1/3 C (3-ounces) California walnut butter (see note)

  • 1/8 C (1/2-ounce) California walnuts, finely chopped

  • *To pit dates, use a sharp paring knife and cut down the side of the date lengthwise, then gently remove the pit with your fingers.

  2. Sprinkle about ¼ teaspoon of walnuts onto each stuffed date.

  3. Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container up to five days.

     

    Note: Using store-bought walnut butter can further simplify this recipe, but be sure to mix well before using.
