Olenko’s Dates Stuffed With Orange Almonds

Published : Saturday, July 4th, 2015

This yummy dessert is inspired by my trip to Jordan and was published in Destinations Magazine The Travel Love Of  Fare on pages 46-47.

2 cups of freshly squeezed orange juice

1 cup of organic raw almonds

13 organic Medjool dates

pinch of cardamon powder

pinch of cinnamon powder

Place a inch of cardamon and cinnamon into a bowl of freshly squeezed orange juice. soak the almond in the mixture for 4-6 hours in the fridge. This will activate the enzymes in the almonds and they will be infused withe amazing orange, cardamon, cinnamon flavors.

Drain the almonds and place in the dehydrator for 12 hours on 110 F or until completely dry and crunchy. Then slit the dates open and remove the pits. Fill each date with 2 or 3 almonds. They will keep for a week or two in a airtight container and they make a great snack, appetiser or raw dessert. Enjoy : )
