These stuffed dates are a superfood boosted version of the classic snack. The seeds add wonderful omega fatty acids and rich minerals such as zinc and selenium.
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, combine the peanut butter, pumpkin, sunflower, chia, sesame, and hemp seeds.
Dollop the peanut butter mixture into the dates.
If desired, drizzle the filled dates with melted chocolate and extra hemp seeds. Enjoy!
Storage
Store these dates at room temperature an airtight container for up to 4 days, or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Amazing! I used almond butter and sprinkled the tops with coarse salt. I've never made stuffed dates before and these will definetly be a staple in our household.

I love dates and always look for ways to use them without blending or mashing.

Wow! I love how simple this idea is, I can add or take out ingredients based on what I'm craving. Tastes like a Reese's Cup (I am/was addicted to chacolate Reese's cup before going vegan- it's actually the last thing I ate while transitioning into a full vegan diet).
I wasn't sure if I liked dates but this recipe comfirmed I like them and it dffinetly fulfills cravings through it's many uses in different recipes.

FYI you can store these even longer in the freezer... I make a similar thing with the seeds and almond butter and little chunks of dark chocolate on top. I make a big batch and then I throw them all in the freezer. When I want a sweet treat, they are like little frozen Snicker's bars straight out of the freezer.

Mmm thanks for the tip, Vera, that sounds incredible! We'll be sure to give it a try 😃

What?! I need to try this! Thank you for that idea. I'm scared the chacolate will get too hard but hey, the dates are so sweet and yummy that chacolate isn't absolutely needed. Definitely trying this ASAP.

Lovely! Took only 5 minutes to make. Love fresh medjool dates and the filling pairs well. Nice crunch. Didn't have hemp seed and used almond butter. No chocolate. Trying to reduce my sugar intake. This satisfied my sweet tooth! Simple and brilliant! Thank you!

These are delicious! I have a two year old who lives for dates - this is his favorite snack now, it spices up just handing him a pitted date.
