Method
Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that the bacon will cook evenly and become crispy.
Prepare the Dates
Using a sharp knife, make a small slit in each Medjool date and remove the pit. If you are using almonds, you can insert one almond into each date for added crunch.
Wrap with Bacon
Cut each slice of bacon in half. Wrap each bacon piece around a date, securing it with a toothpick if necessary. Ensure that the bacon overlaps slightly to cover the date completely.
Cooking
Bake the Dates
Place the bacon-wrapped dates on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and golden brown.
Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute. If desired, drizzle with honey and garnish with fresh rosemary before serving.
