I tried these August long weekend, compliments of my cousin. THEY WERE INCREDIBLE. To be honest, I had never tried a date before and they look like giant raisins (and I am not a huge fan of raisins), so I was hesitant. But, bacon makes everything better <3 We had these as an appetizer with dinner, but today...I am having them with eggs for breakfast!
Ingredients:
1 Package of dates
1 lb of sliced bacon
1. Preheat oven to 375F.
2. Pit your dates. Split them from the top and you can just pull the pit out. (or buy pitted dates)
3. Cut each bacon slice in 1/2.
4. Wrap each date in the 1/2 slice of bacon and place on a baking sheet. I use stone and would recommend it ten times over. Everything you cook or bake comes out just as brown on the bottom as it is on the top. Stone is super easy to wash and naturally non-stick. You can see the ones I use here.
5. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until bacon is crispy and to your liking.
Enjoy!
