These sweet and savory bacon wrapped dates are a quick and easy appetizer made with only 2 ingredients. They're guaranteed to be a hit at your next party!
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking tray (with edges) with parchment paper.
Cut a slit lengthwise in each date and remove the pit.
Cut the bacon slices in half.
Wrap one piece of the bacon around each date, securing with a toothpick. Place dates on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake dates in the oven for 20-25 minutes, rotating halfway, until the bacon is cooked to your liking.
Remove dates from the oven and place them on a plate lined with a paper towel to soak up some of the bacon grease. Let cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
