Bacon Wrapped Pineapple Bites

Ingredients

• 24 1" inch chunks of fresh pineapple
• 8 strips of thick cut bacon (cut into thirds (or 12 strips regular bacon, cut in half))
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 24 wooden toothpicks

Instructions

1. 1

   Cut the pineapple into 1 inch cubes.

2. 2

   Line a baking pan with aluminum foil (for easy clean up), then place a cooling rack onto the lined baking sheet.

3. 3

   Wrap each piece of pineapple with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick. For thick cut bacon, 1/3 of a slice is enough. For regular bacon, use 1/2 of a slice for each piece of pineapple.

4. 4

   Dip each bacon wrapped pineapple bite into some brown sugar, patting it on as needed.

5. 5

   Bake at 350 degrees F for 25-35 minutes, until the bacon is slightly crispy and the sugar is caramelized.

6. 6

   Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
