Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  2. Add the feta to the middle of a small baking dish.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together diced dates and chopped hazelnuts. Drizzle everything with extra virgin olive oil, honey, and chopped fresh rosemary.
  4. Sprinkle date and hazelnut topping on and around the feta cheese.
  5. Drizzle the olive oil on top of the whole dish. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  6. Place the dish in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until you have a soft and creamy feta and toasted, plump and browned nuts and dates. Keep a close eye on the roasted feta in the last five minutes, to prevent burning.
