Slice the Dates: Carefully cut each Medjool date lengthwise, making sure not to slice completely through, and remove the pit if they aren’t pre-pitted.

Mix the Filling: In a small bowl, combine the softened goat cheese and chopped walnuts. Stir gently until everything is well blended.

Stuff the Dates: Using a small spoon or your fingers, generously fill each cut date with the goat cheese mixture.

Arrange and Drizzle: Place the stuffed dates on a beautiful serving platter. Drizzle honey and balsamic glaze over the top.

Garnish and Serve: Top each date with a sprinkle of fresh thyme leaves. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour.
