What do I need?
- 20 pitted dates
- 10 tbsp almond butter
- 10 tsp sea salt
- 2 – 3 drops pink food colouring
How do I make it?
- Use a sharp knife to make a slit in the dates. Stuff each date with about ½ tbsp almond butter, depending on the size of the dates.
- Place salt in a Ziploc bag and add food colouring. Press all the air out of the bag and close it. Use your hands on the outside of the bag to work the food colouring into the salt until it is all mixed together.
- Sprinkle coloured salt over the dates when ready to serve.
TOP TIPS
- The more food colouring you use, the more vibrant the salt colour will be. If using a lot of food colouring you will need to let the salt dry out before using it. To do this pour it out on a plate and leave exposed to the air.
- Stuffed dates will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 week, or 3 – 4 days outside the fridge. They can also be frozen for 6 months.
