Ingredients
- 24 Medjool dates
- ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
- 3 TBS pecan pieces
- ¼ tsp black pepper ground
- ½ tsp salt optional, see notes
- 12 lices Bacon cut in half
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- ½ tsp chili flakes for garnish, crushed
- parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using a sharp knife, slit each date in half lengthwise.
- Mix together feta, pecan pieces, pepper, and salt (if using).
- Fill each date with about 1 tsp of filling mixture.
- Wrap each stuffed date in half a piece of bacon, secure with toothpick and place on baking sheet.
- Bake for 20 minutes, remove from oven and brush with maple syrup. Flip dates over and brush other side with syrup then return to oven and bake an additional 10 - 15 minutes, until bacon is desired crispiness.
- Sprinkle with chili flakes and parsley before serving.
Notes
- Add salt to the filling or sprinkle a little flaked salt on with the parsley after baking if you prefer more salty than sweet.
- Either serve with the toothpick in or remove it. To remove, make sure you pull it from the non-end side so it doesn’t start unwrapping the bacon when you remove it.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5 to 8 minutes, watching carefully so that the bacon doesn’t crisp up too much.
