Medjool Dates (Pitted if Available) — 1 lb | approx 2-25
Thinly Sliced Bacon — 1 lb
Gorgonzola Cheese — 4 oz | 1/2 cup
Whole Toasted Almonds — 22-25 each
Toothpicks — 22-25 each
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Slice the dates lengthwise on one side to create an opening.
Remove the pit.
Stuff each date with 1 almond.
Using a spoon, stuff a small amount of goat cheese into the cavity of each date and press the sides together to close.
Wrap each date with half a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
Place onto fine grated baking rack that is set on a sheet tray lined with foil.
Bake for 8 minutes. Turn the dates over so the bacon will cook evenly. Continue cooking 8 min until bacon is browned and crispy.
Serve warm or at room temperature
