1. Using a small knife, open the dates and remove the pit. Dice the dates into small pieces. Alternatively, you can just slice the dates in half.
2. Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat. Saute the dates for 5 minutes until they are slightly caramelized.
3. Whisk the eggs in a bowl and then pour them over the dates. Cover and cook for 10 minutes until the eggs are set.
4. If desired, fold the omelette before serving and top with sesame seeds.
Notes
1. You can double and triple the recipe if desired.
2. Store the leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan over medium heat.
