Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 10 medjool dates opened and pits removed
  • 4 oz plain goat cheese softened
  • 2 tbsp honey plus more for drizzling
  • 1 tbsp chopped pecans
  • A pinch of salt
  • 3 slices prosciutto torn into small pieces
  • Fresh thyme leaves for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, mix together the goat cheese, 2 tablespoons of honey, chopped pecans, and a small pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
  2. Gently stuff each medjool date with the goat cheese mixture, letting the date close slightly around the filling.
  3. Top each date with a small piece of torn prosciutto.
  4. Arrange your goat cheese stuffed dates with prosciutto on a serving platter, drizzle lightly with honey (or hot honey for a little heat), and finish with fresh thyme leaves.
  5. Enjoy right away or refrigerate without the honey drizzle until ready to serve.

Notes

  • For best flavor, use soft, plump medjool dates.
  • Add a sprinkle of flaky salt right before serving to enhance the sweet-savory balance.
  • These can be prepared several hours in advance; add prosciutto and honey just before serving.
