Anyone who knows anything about me knows that I love to dance. Full-on dad style. If you know anything else about me, it’s that I have a huge sweet tooth. One of my favorite ways to indulge my cravings for sweets is with my almond butter bacon-wrapped dates. I make it with fresh pitted dates, crispy bacon, and JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter. It’s so good it makes me feel like I could dance!
½ cup JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter
24 Dates, pitted
1 pound Bacon Slices, cut in half
24 Toothpicks
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
2. Stuff each date with 1 to 2 teaspoons of the JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter.
3. Wrap a slice of bacon tightly around each date and secure with a toothpick.
4. Place the dates on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
5. Bake for 16 to 18 minutes, turning once. Serve warm.
This flavorful dish was inspired by my love for Asian cuisine. It’s entirely vegetarian and feels like a treat everytime I make it. The combination of zesty, sweet, and savory miso sauce over a bed of veggies and noodles, is the perfect dinner recipe for any night.

You know what’s a great word? Truffle. It’s kind of silly, but fun to say—and even more fun to eat! My recipe for Dark Chocolate Hazelnut & Coconut Truffles puts JUSTIN’S® Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Butter, shredded coconut, and dark chocolate chips together to create something wonderful. They’re great for parties, gatherings, or just a fun little treat. Enjoy!

Granola is nutritious and good for you, but can be hard to start eating as part of a consistent diet. So, I’ve decided to kick up the flavor by adding my JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter—turning plain old ‘groan’-ola into tasty almond butter granola cookies!
