Bacon-wrapped pineapple

Two of my favourite things together at last.


I had these treats while on vacation in the Okanagan this summer. My dear and amazingly talented friend, Allison, cooked them up for us one night before supper. Yesterday I wanted to make a quick and easy appetizer so I wrapped these up and they were a big hit.

1 pkg of bacon
Some pineapple (I bought two 500 g containers of pineapple slices as there were none ripe)
About 1/2 cup of brown sugar (or more, I probably used more)

Set oven to 350.

Cut the package of bacon in half so that you have half slices to work with. Dredge the bacon, one at a time, in the brown sugar. Place a small piece of pineapple on the bacon. Roll the bacon around the pineapple and fasten with a toothpick. I cooked them on cookie sheets with parchment paper to lessen the mess.

Bake in the oven at 350 for about 10-15 minutes. It depends on how crispy you like your bacon.
