¼ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
¾ cup dark brown sugar
20 dates, pitted and left whole
10 bacon slices, cut in half crosswise
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Soak toothpicks in a bowl of water. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Mix soy sauce and ground ginger together in a bowl. Place brown sugar into a separate bowl. Spread open a pitted date, then stuff it with a smoked almond. Wrap date with half a bacon slice; secure with a toothpick, then dip the bundle in soy sauce mixture, then into brown sugar. Place wrapped dates into the prepared baking dish. If desired, sprinkle a little more brown sugar over the bundles.
Bake in the preheated oven until the bacon is brown and crisp, 15 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool for about 15 minutes before serving; serve warm or at room temperature.
You can use prunes or dried apricots instead of dates, and mango chutney instead of almonds.
