Ingredients
- 12 oz. Medjool dates, pitted (smaller dates are best)
- 1/2 package bacon, pieces cut into thirds
- 4 Tbsp. honey, or maple syrup
- kosher salt to taste
- Parsley for Garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° Farhenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and a baking rack.
- If you can't find already pitted dates, slice through the dates and remove any pits that are there.
- Wrap a precut slice of bacon around each date and secure it with a toothpick.
- Add the wrapped date to a baking rack on top of a baking sheet pan. Brush the wrapped dates with honey using a basting brush.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the bacon is crispy. If you want to ensure that all parts of the bacon are crispy, turn halfway through the baking time.
- Once they are done, immediately drizzle with additional honey if you would like then top with coarse salt to taste.
- Let the dates cool a little bit then serve with fresh chopped parsley!
