Calories: 92kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pound bacon, cut in half
- 1 fresh pineapple (cut into 28 1-inch chunks)
- ½ cup barbecue sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set it aside.
- Roll a slice of pineapple up in a sliced piece of bacon. Set it on the prepared baking sheet. Space the bacon-wrapped pineapple 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 40 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven. Using a pastry brush, brush barbecue sauce over the bacon-wrapped pineapple.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue baking for 15 minutes. Remove the bacon-wrapped pineapple from the oven and serve while hot.
Notes
- You can make these with a toothpick inserted through the pieces of bacon and the chunk of pineapple. This will keep the bundles together and make it easier for guests to pick up their appetizers.
- You can also roll the uncooked bacon-wrapped pineapple in brown sugar before cooking.
- Make sure to place it with the ends of the bacon strips on the bottom, so it doesn’t come undone.
