Time 20m

Yield 6 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 large medjool dates
24 whole almonds (preferably blanched), walnuts or pecans
3 to 4 tablespoons crème fraîche
Freshly grated zest of 1 lemon or 1/2 orange (about 2 teaspoons)
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped pistachios

Steps:

  • Rinse and dry the dates. Make a clean cut along the side of each date to open, and remove the pit.
  • Stuff each date with 2 whole almonds and lightly pinch closed. (The recipe can be made up to this point up to 2 days in advance. Store in an airtight container.)
  • When ready to serve, arrange dates cut sides up on a plate or platter. Drizzle on the crème fraîche, making a dollop on each date. Sprinkle on the citrus zest, then the chopped pistachios. Serve immediately, as finger food or on plates with a small fork and knife.

Tips:

  • Choose plump and soft dates for the best texture.
  • Use a sharp knife to make a clean slit in the dates.
  • Stuff the dates with a generous amount of pistachio filling.
  • If the coconut mixture is too dry, add a little bit of milk or cream.
  • Roll the stuffed dates in coconut flakes for a festive look.
  • Store the stuffed dates in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
