Ingredients
- ½ cup chopped pecans
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons shredded, dried unsweetened coconut
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon virgin coconut oil, melted
- 18 dates
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a small bowl, combine orange zest, chopped pecans, cinnamon, 2 tablespoons coconut, syrup, and oil. Stir until evenly coated.
- Spread out on parchment-lined cookie sheet and roast 5 to 6 minutes until lightly browned. Remove from oven and set aside.
- Carefully slice each date down one side and remove pit. If necessary, make small cuts in rounded ends of dates so they do not tear. Gently turn date inside out, placing sticky side down on work surface.
- Press ¼ teaspoon roasted nut mixture into each date. Fold up edges and press seam and ends together to seal shut. Place remaining ½ cup coconut in small bowl, then press and roll sealed dates in coconut to coat.
- Arrange on tray and serve.
