Equipment

  • 1 Food processor

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup shelled pistachios
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1/4 cup slivered almonds
  • 1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 Medjool dates, pitted

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 200°C. Arrange pistachios, sesame seeds, and almonds on a rimmed baking sheet, making sure to keep them separated. Roast until toasted, 3 to 5 minutes. Cool slightly.
  • In a food processor, pulse pistachios until coarsely chopped. Transfer ¼ cup to a small bowl and mix in sesame seeds. Set aside.
