Recipe by Katharine Rosenthal

Ingredients

  • 10 Natural Delights Medjool dates, pitted
  • 4 ounces fresh goat cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup walnuts
  • ⅛ cup fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Hot honey, for drizzling

Find "12 oz Organic Pitted Medjool Dates" in a Store

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, toss the walnuts with olive oil and rosemary until coated. Spread them on the baking sheet and roast for 8–10 minutes, stirring halfway, until fragrant and golden. Remove and set aside.
  3. Slice each date lengthwise to create a small pocket and stuff with goat cheese. Arrange the stuffed dates on the same baking sheet.
  4. Warm the dates in the oven for about 5 minutes, just until the cheese softens and the dates are slightly warm.
  5. Place the mixture in a container or, if you prefer, in individual containers. Enjoy!

*While Medjool dates are high in natural sugars, they are low on the glycemic index thanks to a balanced amount of soluble fiber. The complex carbohydrates found in Medjool dates are digested at a slower rate, making them a source of dietary fiber and releasing energy to the body over a longer period of time.
