These are the BIGGEST hit I have ever witnessed at any potluck, or other gathering, period. They are super simple to make, and delicious! Gluten free, dairy free, guilt free 😉
Ingredients:
Dates
Bacon
Spreadable Goats Cheese
Toothpics (not needed but can help)
Optional: Almonds, Pecans, or other things you’d like to stuff in there. Cream cheese works also, however not as healthy.
Instructions:
1.Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2.Cut bacon strips in half.
3.Slice dates down the middle and remove the pit and crunchy end.
4.Use a butter knife to spread goats cheese inside the date.
5.Wrap each date with a piece of bacon.
6.Toothpics aren’t necessary but can be used to help keep them together, otherwise place end of bacon side down on baking sheet.
Note: Always use a baking sheet that has edges, to avoid bacon grease spilling over the edge.
7.Bake for 20 minutes, flipping them over half way.
8. Enjoy!
