Notes
Tips for Making This Appetizer
- 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.
