Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 6 Medjool Dates pitted and smashed
- 1 ½ cups Plain Greek Yogurt I used full-fat plain Greek yogurt
- ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Roasted & Salted Pistachios finely chopped
- Flaky Salt
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the pitted, smashed dates in an even layer and cook for about 5 minutes, flipping them halfway through. The butter should be browned and nutty, but not burnt. Give the pan a shake a few times to help everything cook evenly.
- While the dates cook, spread the Greek yogurt into serving bowls. Sprinkle a little cinnamon over the yogurt. Once the dates are ready, evenly divide them among the bowls, then spoon the brown butter over the top.
- Drizzle each bowl with honey, sprinkle with finely chopped pistachios, and finish with a pinch of flaky salt.
