Preheat oven to 375°F.

Step 3

Place walnut pieces on parchment lined sheet and bake until toasted (4-5 minutes).

Step 4

Chop dates and set aside.

Step 5

On a pastry mat or clean counter, sprinkle flour to make a large rectangular work area.

Step 6

Unroll Crescent Rolls onto area. Use a rolling pin to smooth out lines on the dough, creating a smooth rectangle from the dough.

Starting from one longer edge, roll dough into a long, thin cylinder shape.

With a sharp knife, cut the centre of the roll, leaving one inch connected on one end. Braid the two pieces together, keeping the filling exposed on the top. Twist the braid into a loose circle.

Step 10

Place twist on the parchment lined sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until edges are light brown and centre of twist is cooked.

Step 11

Remove from oven and immediately drizzle honey over entire twist.
