Bacon Wrapped Pineapple Bites
1 pound bacon
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained
1 cup brown sugar
Wooden skewers or toothpicks
Soak skewers or toothpicks in a dish of water.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Cut the bacon slices in half.
Put the brown sugar in a shallow bowl and dredge each half slice bacon in the brown sugar.
Take one pineapple chunk, place on one end of a bacon slice and roll up. Secure with a toothpick.
After all pineapples are rolled, sprinkle remaining brown sugar over the top.
We baked them on a broiler pan sprayed with nonstick cooking spray for 20 minutes at 375 degrees F. They could also be baked on a rack on a baking sheet, just something that will keep them up out of the juices that are released. After baking, crank up the broiler and broil for 3 minutes - but no longer - so the brown sugar doesn't burn.

These look great! I'm for anything that's wrapped in bacon. And, I love bacon and brown sugar together. I'll have to give these a try over the holidays. Thanks for sharing on Sweet Indulgences Sunday.
ReplyDeleteI found this on Pinterest. Looks delicious!!! I am thinking I could bake ahead, refrigerate, and then do the broiling right before serving. Your thoughts?
DeleteJenny, I have not tried them this way, but it sounds like it would work. To make them up ahead of time I think you could also wrap the pineapple in bacon then refrigerate them until you are ready to bake, add the brown sugar then or even spinkle it on before putting under the broiler. Let me know how it works because doing ahead is always a plus!
DeleteThis looks like such an awesome recipe!! I would love for you to stop over and check out my tutorial today for Bacon Roses!
