Date Recipes from a California Date Farm

Every recipe below starts with the same ingredient: the soft, caramel-sweet Medjool dates we grow on our family date farm in Sky Valley, California. Hand-harvested, no pesticides, shipped direct to your door from the Desert Sun Dates shop.

Looking for a crowd-pleasing appetizer? Try our bacon-wrapped Medjool dates — crispy, sweet, and savory in three ingredients. Prefer something lighter? Our stuffed dates with peanut butter take under five minutes and no oven. Bakers will love our moist Medjool date nut bread, and anyone with a sweet tooth should check out Medjool candy bar bites — chocolate-dipped, peanut butter-stuffed, and ready in 12 minutes.

You can also swap refined sugar for our homemade Medjool date syrup — a natural, unprocessed sweetener that works in coffee, oatmeal, and baking. Use the Appetizers and Dessert Treats filters below to browse, or show all six recipes. Every page includes full ingredients, step-by-step instructions, tested cook times, and notes from our farm kitchen.
