A pinch of sea salt
Optional: Fresh thyme or rosemary for garnish
Instructions
Prepare the Dates:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a small knife, make a lengthwise slit in each pitted date to create an opening, being careful not to cut through completely.
Stuff the Dates:
Insert a piece of Brie cheese into each date, followed by one almond. Gently press the date closed around the filling.
Bake:
Arrange the stuffed dates on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the Brie is soft and slightly melty.
Drizzle with Honey:
Remove the dates from the oven and let cool slightly. Drizzle each stuffed date with honey and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt.
Garnish and Serve:
Garnish with fresh thyme or rosemary if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
