Equipment

  • Toothpicks
  • Baking sheet

Ingredients

  • 12 dates pits removed
  • 3 ounces goat cheese
  • 6 slices turkey bacon cut in half

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and soak your toothpicks in water (this helps to keep them from splitting while baking).
  • Next, remove the pits from your dates (skip if you have pitted dates). Stuff with a small amount of goat cheese (I used a little more than a teaspoon in each).
  • Wrap with a slice of turkey bacon that has been cut in half and poke a toothpick through.
  • Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper (not wax paper) or sprayed with non-stick spray.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until turkey bacon is nicely browned. Turn about half way through. Use paper towels to soak up any extra grease once cooled.
