Ingredients

  • 12 bacon slices cut in half
  • 24 pineapple chunks
  • ½ cup brown sugar (or coconut sugar), optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Place a wire rack in the baking dish.
  2. Wrap each pineapple chunk with a piece of bacon and dip in the brown sugar. Place bites on a wire rack in the foil-lined baking sheet.
  3. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes, or until bacon is cooked through and crispy. Secure with toothpicks and place on a platter. Let the bacon bites rest for about 5 - 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh pineapple rather than canned if possible. Nothing beats the delicious sweet flavor of fresh pineapple.
  • Roll the bacon bites in coconut (or brown) sugar to make them even more delicious, irresistible and crispy.
  • Place the wrapped bacon pineapple bites on a wire rack in the baking sheet. This helps with air circulate around and helps them bake and crisp up from all sides.
  • Let the bacon pineapple bites rest for 5 minutes so the bacon can crisp up a little bit more.
