Description
Sweet, supple Medjool dates cradle melted Brie, all wrapped in sizzling bacon and kissed with honey and thyme. Crisp edges yield to a creamy center and a touch of herbaceous brightness.
Ingredients
- 12 unit Medjool dates
- 4 ounce Brie cheese
- 6 slice Bacon
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.
- Slice each date lengthwise and remove the pit.
- Cut the Brie into small pieces and stuff one piece into each date.
- Wrap each stuffed date with a half slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick if needed.
- Place the wrapped dates in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Cook for 8 to 10 minutes until the bacon is crispy.
- Drizzle the hot dates with honey and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves.
- Remove toothpicks before serving and enjoy warm.
Notes
- Make sure the dates are fully pitted to avoid any hard bits.
- For a lighter version, substitute turkey bacon for regular bacon.
- Serve immediately after cooking for the best texture and flavor.
- Toothpicks help keep the bacon in place during air frying.
