Ingredients
- 22 chunks fresh or canned pineapple (about 1 to 1 ½ inches in size)
- 11 slices of your favorite bacon
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 22 toothpicks
Instructions
- First things first, crank up your oven to 350°F. While it heats up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper to avoid a sticky mess.
- Pour the brown sugar into a bowl.
- Take your bacon strips and cut them in half. You want each piece to be the perfect size to wrap around a chunk of pineapple.
- Grab a piece of pineapple, place it at one end of the bacon strip, and roll it up like a delicious little present. Once it’s snug, roll that baby in the brown sugar, coating it generously.
- Slide a toothpick through the bacon-wrapped pineapple to keep everything in place. You don’t want your bacon unraveling in the oven!
- Keep going with the rest of the bacon and pineapple chunks. It’s a little repetitive, but oh-so worth it.
- If you’ve got some leftover brown sugar (and I bet you will), sprinkle it on top of your bacon-wrapped pineapple before baking.
- Pop your baking sheet in the oven and bake for 30 minutes. The bacon will crisp up while the pineapple stays juicy and sweet.
- Once they’re out of the oven, serve these treats warm for the best flavor. They’re perfect for snacking, appetizers, or even a fun dinner side dish.
