- 12 Medjool dates pitted
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- Flaky sea salt or crushed nuts optional, for topping
Slice each Medjool date lengthwise and remove the pit if not already pitted.
Using a butter knife or piping bag, fill the center of each date with about 1/2 teaspoon of softened butter.
Optionally, sprinkle the tops with flaky sea salt or crushed nuts for added texture and flavor.
Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for 10–15 minutes for a firmer bite.
