Bacon Wrapped Pineapple with Honey Chipotle Glaze
Report
These super easy appetizers are huge crowd pleasers! I mean how can you go wrong with bacon and pineapple? Brush with a 2-ingredient honey chipotle glaze, and before you know it you’ve eaten an entire pineapple single-handedly.

Ingredients
- 1 pineapple chopped into bite sized pieces
- 1 pound thick-cut bacon
- Toothpicks
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 chipotle pepper
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
- Line a large baking sheet with foil (or don't. It just makes for easier cleanup.) No need to grease it.
- Chop up a pineapple into bitesize pieces. Like 1 to 2 inch pieces (see photo).
- Slice each strip of bacon in half. (I didn't do each strip, I just took the whole thing out of the package, put it on the cutting board, and chopped it once.)
- Wrap each piece of pineapple in bacon and secure with a toothpick. Place on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining bacon and pineapple. You may have extra pineapple, so make sure you don't touch all of it with raw bacon-y hands.
- In a blender or food processor, add the honey and chipotle pepper. (I added mine straight from the freezer*)
- Blend until smooth. I added about a tablespoon of water to help it blend.
- Once the glaze is smooth, pour it into 2 small bowls.
- Use a pastry brush and one of the bowls to coat each bacon wrapped pineapple. Don't be stingy! (But also make sure there is plenty of glaze left for when they come out of the oven.)
- Bake at 400 for about 20 minutes. When the bacon is as crispy as you like it, remove from the oven and use a (clean) pastry brush and the second bowl of glaze to coat each one again.
- Serve hot!
Notes
- *1 pepper from a can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. You can find it on the Mexican food aisle. You will rarely ever use an entire can of chipotle peppers. I always open a can, take what I need, and freeze the rest in a ziplock.
- It you plan to serve these a little while after they come out of the oven, wait until the last minute to add the second coat of glaze.
- You can assemble these ahead of time (like 1-2 days before your event). Keep them covered in the fridge. Glaze and bake them just before serving.
