Coconut Cardamom Stuffed Dates - (recipe for 20 dates)

Grounding, nourishing, cooling. I like to make a bunch and freeze them because they are such a wonderful substitute for ice cream!
Picture
Ingredients:
  • Medjool Dates (10)
  • Coconut Butter (sometimes it's called "coconut manna" NOT coconut OIL... You can find it at your natural foods store) (1/2 cup)
  • Unsweetened shredded coconut (1 cup)
  • Ghee (1 tablespoon)
  • Lime (1)
  • Cardamom Powder (1 teaspoon)
  • Cinnamon (1/2 teaspoon)
  • Himalayan Pink Salt (a pinch)

Directions:
  1. On low heat- Warm up 1/2 cup of coconut butter with1 tablespoon of ghee. Only warm until soft. Just needs to warm up enough to melt… then let it cool to room temp in a separate bowl
  2. Squeeze the lime juice into a separate bowl and strain pulp/seeds if there are any.
  3.  Add the cardamom, cinammon, salt, and lime
  4. Dry toast about a half cup of unsweetened coconut shreds on medium heat until golden brown (this happens fast, so keep a close eye!) Then remove from heat and put in a separate bowl so they don't continue to cook.
  5. Open dates and remove pits- split in half with your fingers and make little boats.
  6. Slowly add the coconut shreds to the coconut butter mixture until you have reached desired firm “stuffable” consistency.
  7. Stuff the mixture into the date boats and sprinkle with a bit of cinnamon if desired.
  8. Pop um in the fridge for a few minutes to harden
  9. Eat and share! Great item to bring to a potluck!

"There are so many gifts that I received from working with Brittany as my Ayurvedic Counselor. She has an amazing ability to see people and was able to help me express exactly what I was feeling but had no idea how to articulate. From the big life themes to the slight yet profound adjustments to the way I live my life, I am feeling more vibrant and healthy than ever! I feel blessed to have worked with Brittany and strongly recommend her."
- Audrey J. San Francisco Ca.


"In just a few sessions, Brittany helped me feel healthier, calmer, and more alive. She has the warmest heart and spirit of anyone you'll ever meet plus she gives you helpful information so you get the results that you want. She really listened to my needs and helped me create changes that worked for me and continue to work for me to this day. Throughout all of our sessions, I felt very taken care of and listened to!"
