Ingredients
32
pitted dates
or however many you want to make

shelled pistachios
(32-64) 1-2 per date
1
lb.
lean
thin bacon, each strip cut into 3-4 pieces depending on size of date

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Make a slit in each date, if there isn't one already and stuff with 1-2 pistachios. Remove the pit if they are pitted.
Wrap each date with a piece of bacon so that the bacon just overlaps. Close with a toothpick.
Place seam side down on the cookie sheet.
Brush lightly with maple syrup.
Bake until bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes each side.
Dates can be made ahead of time and frozen.
Bake for 8-10 minutes per side if frozen.
Drizzle with additional maple syrup if desired.
