Ingredients
- 12 oz. dates about 16, pitted
- 8 oz. Bacon thin strips
- 4 oz. goat cheese room temperature
- 1 tsp. rosemary fresh, finely chopped
- ¼ tsp. salt to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a medium-sized bowl mix together the room temperature goat cheese, chopped rosemary, and salt.
- Slice an opening in each date, being careful not to go all of the way through. You want it to look like a taco when you’re done.
- Stuff each date with 1-2 teaspoons of the goat cheese mixture.
- Cut all strips of bacon in half horizontally. Wrap one piece around a stuffed date and secure with a toothpick. Repeat with remaining bacon and dates.
- Place dates on a wire rack that has been placed in a large baking sheet that is lined with aluminum foil. If you do not have a wire rack, you can also place dates on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 24-26 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and cooked through. If using a parchment paper lined baking sheet, you’ll need to turn the dates over every 7-8 minutes so the bacon crisps up evenly.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- To Store: Keep leftovers sealed in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- To Freeze: Seal partially-cooked bacon-wrapped dates in a freezer-safe airtight container for up to 3 months. Defrost before baking.
