Honey Ricotta Pistachio Dates (Printable Version)

Plump Medjool dates packed with a creamy honey ricotta blend and topped off with crunchy pistachios for a sweet and smooth bite.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Nuts

01 - 30 grams chopped pistachios

→ Sweeteners

02 - 30 milliliters honey with extra for drizzling

→ Dairy

03 - 120 grams creamy ricotta cheese

→ Flavorings

04 - 2.5 milliliters vanilla extract
05 - A little pinch of cinnamon if you like

→ Fruits

06 - 12 pitted Medjool dates

# Detailed Preparation Steps:

01 - Drizzle some extra honey over the stuffed dates and sprinkle the chopped pistachios last before serving.
02 - Fill each date with about 5 to 7.5 milliliters of ricotta mix using a spoon or piping bag. Don’t stuff too much.
03 - Stir ricotta, honey, vanilla, and cinnamon in a bowl until it’s nice and smooth.
04 - Carefully slice each Medjool date down the side but not all the way through. Take out the pit if there is one and open it up for the filling.

# Helpful Tips:

01 - Full-fat ricotta gives it a richer taste. Toast your pistachios lightly to boost their flavor. Keep leftovers in the fridge covered tight.
