Notes
Leftovers
Keep frozen in an airtight container or freezer bag. Line with parchment paper between pieces if needed.
Serving Size
One serving equals one thin slice, about 1/4-inch thick. A standard loaf pan was used to make 20 servings. This recipe also works in an 8 x 8-inch dish.
Nut-Free
Use sesame seeds, coconut flakes or dried fruit instead of pistachios.
More Flavor
Use toasted pistachios.
Make it Sweeter
Add more dates, honey or maple syrup before transferring to the loaf pan for freezing.
