Ingredients

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F.
  • Prep the ingredients. Chop each date in half lengthwise and remove the pit if it has one. Set aside. Cut the bacon in half cross-wise. In a mixing bowl, add the cut bacon, maple syrup and smoked paprika. Use your hands to combine until evenly coated.
  • Bring it all together. Add a small amount of goat cheese to the center of each date. Then take a piece of bacon and wrap it around the date. Use a toothpick to secure it and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dates and bacon.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes. The bacon should look browned and crispy. Serve once cool to the touch. Enjoy!
