Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 16 medjool dates (about 2 cups)
  • 4 oz goat cheese (113 g)
  • ¼ cup pine nuts
  • To serve: flaky sea salt, ground black pepper, extra virgin olive oil

Instruction

  • Prep: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 C). Slice dates lengthwise on one side and remove the pit.
  • Stuff: Spoon a bit of goat cheese into each date. Set cut side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until warmed through.
  • Pine Nuts: Meanwhile, add pine nuts to a small saute pan and set over medium heat. Cook until golden brown and toasted, about 5 minutes (keep a careful eye as these can burn easily).
  • Serve: Drizzle warm dates with olive oil and sprinkle with toasted pine nuts, salt, and pepper.
