Step 1
Begin by preparing the Medjool dates. Carefully take each date and make a lengthwise slit using a paring knife. Gently open and remove the pits.

Spoon approximately half a tablespoon of almond butter into the cavity of each pitted date. You can use a small spoon or a piping bag for a neater presentation.
Step 3
Insert one whole almond in the center of the almond butter for an added crunch.
Step 4
After all dates are stuffed, sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt over each to enhance the flavors.
Step 5
Arrange the almond butter stuffed dates on a serving platter or store them in an airtight container. Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for later. They can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
