- Prep Time: 15 Mins.
- Cook Time: 25 Mins.
Ingredients
-
Dates:
- 24 pitted medium to large dates
- ¼ teaspoon cracked black pepper
- 12 thin slices of bacon, halved widthwise
- 24 Fisher® Pecan Halves
- ¼ cup chopped Fisher® Pecan Halves
-
Sauce:
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a jelly roll pan or a cookie sheet with raised edges with aluminum foil.
- Prepare the dates:Season the dates generously with black pepper. Pull on or cut the dates lengthwise so that they open and insert 1 pecan into each date. Wrap tightly in a strip of bacon. Put the dates on the prepared pan, seam side down.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Turn the dates over and continue baking 5 minutes or until the bacon has browned on the top and bottom. Transfer to a serving platter and top with the sauce and chopped nuts.
- Make the sauce:Meanwhile, cook the honey in a small skillet over medium heat until it boils, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully add the red wine vinegar. Return the pan to the heat and allow it to cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes over low heat. Keep warm.
