Ingredients & Substitutes
This recipe for Medjool dates only requires only four simple ingredients and is easy to find in your pantry:
Medjool dates: These are the best variety of dates for a soft and chewy texture.
Almonds: Adds a crunch to the stuffed dates, which compliments peanut butter. However, you can substitute almonds with walnuts.
Peanut butter: Opt for all-natural peanut butter as it pairs harmoniously with almonds and Medjool dates. You can substitute peanut butter with tahini if you have allergies to peanuts.
Dark chocolate: I used 70% dark chocolate for this recipe to balance out the dates' sweetness.
