Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Wrap each date with half a bacon strip and secure with a toothpick.

3. Place on a parchment-lined baking tray.

4. Bake for 12-15 minutes until bacon is crispy but not burnt.

5. Serve warm or cold with your favorite dip.

Notes

Use small dried dates like Deglet Noor for best results.

Medjool dates are too large and soft.

Optionally, stuff dates with cream cheese or goat cheese for a creamy center.

Serve immediately or make-ahead by refrigerating until ready to bake.
