Equipment

  • 1 Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 18 medium dates
  • 9 slices bacon
  • 4 oz goat cheese

Instructions

  • Use a small knife to cut a slit in the dates. Remove the pit and discard.
  • Spread goat cheese in the inside of the date.
  • Cut a piece of bacon in half and wrap it around the date. You can use a toothpick to secure but it is not necessary.
  • Air fry at 360F for 12 minutes, flipping halfway.

Notes

  • Add in some chopped nuts like pistachios, pecans, walnuts or almonds to the goat cheese for an added layer of flavor and crunch.
  • Drizzle on some honey for some extra sweetness, some balsamic reduction or glaze or some basil for a fresh element.
  • Storage: store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat: reheat by air frying at 350F for 3-5 minutes or until heated through.
