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.
