Peanut Butter and Chocolate Stuffed Dates / Sweet and Crunchy

Peanut butter stuffed dates have been a go-to snack for years and years. They're so simple and so delicious.

Ingredients

16-20 soft Medjool dates
3 Tbsp peanut butter

2 Tbsp nuts (I used almonds and hazelnuts)

2 Tbsp ground flex seeds

handful of (dairy-free) chocolate chips (or chopped dark chocolate)

2 Tsp unsweetened shredded coconut

Optional garnish
flaked sea salt
melted (dairy-free) dark chocolate
unsweetened shredded coconut

Directions

Using a sharp paring knife, make an incision along the length of each date, but try not to cut the date in half.
Remove the pits from the dates.

In a small bowl mix together peanut butter, flex seeds, chopped nuts, coconut and chocolate chips. It will look like a thick paste.

Dollop the peanut butter mix into a dates using a ½ teaspoon measure or a small spoon.

If desired, drizzle the filled dates with melted chocolate or a sprinkle of sea salt and shredded coconut flakes. Enjoy!

Storage

Store these dates at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. We like to keep ours in the freezer for additional crunch. It`s so good, you`re gonna love it! 

Note

I had a little leftover peanut butter mix, so I flatten it down and cover with melted chocolate and made a few additional bars. It`s also very yummy, so if you don`t like dates, you can make this bars and enjoy it that way. 

We love this snack! Honestly, it can easily swap any candy bar, it`s so much better for you and saves you a ton of money. If you decide to try them out, please let me know what you think.
