Slit one side of each date with a sharp knife and take out the pits. Combine the almond butter and the pistachios in a food processor. Blend till smooth but still chunky.
Open up each date and fill with the about 1 teaspoon of the nut mixture.
Dates will keep well for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container. You can leave them out to snack on. I like to store mine in the fridge. They have a very nice taste when cold and firm.
