These Stilton Stuffed Dates Wrapped in Pancetta are perfect for parties! Who wants to see an appetizer a little less carby and a little more quick and easy to prepare with only three main ingredients? Yes, please! So be ready for our magical party appetizer that disappears in minutes.
The melty, creamy blue Stilton cheese inside the warm, sweet date wrapped in the crispiest pancetta slices and baked to perfection is my ultimate New Year’s appetizer. To take these to the next level of deliciousness, I put a little balsamic glaze on top and garnish with arugula leaves.
To make these Stilton Stuffed Dates Wrapped in Pancetta, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 400 °F and line a small and shallow roasting pan with parchment paper.
Slice each date in half lengthwise, but don’t cut all the way through. Remove and discard the pit.
Stuff each date with a small piece of Stilton cheese and gently squeeze to close.
Using the back of a knife, stretch the pancetta and half each one widthwise. Wrap each date with half a pancetta rasher. Secure each date with a wooden skewer.
Place the stuffed and wrapped dates on the prepared roasting pan. Bake for 15-17 minutes until the pancetta is crisping.
Serve hot, drizzled with 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze and garnished with arugula. Enjoy!
Whoa, these Stilton stuffed dates are somethin’ else! Made 'em for my buddy's New Year's bash, and they were gone in a flash! The pancetta crunchy with the gooey cheese in the sweet dates is pure magic. I threw on some balsamic glaze for that extra kick. Total showstopper, man!
Wow, these Stilton stuffed dates are like party magic! I made them for a New Year's bash, and they were gone in a flash! The crispy pancetta with the creamy cheese? Insane! My friends couldn't stop raving. Definitely my new go-to appetizer!
