Ingredients
- 1 package nitrate-free bacon mine had 12 slices in it
- 2 organic apples of choice I used fuji
- ground cinnamon
- pecan butter preferably homemade with soaked and dehydrated pecans, or almond butter or any other nut butter would also do
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F
- Peel your apples and cut into slices (each apple should yield 6 pieces)
- Sprinkle cinnamon onto apple slices
- Cover one side of each apple slice with pecan butter
- Wrap pecan butter covered apple slices with bacon slices and secure with toothpick
- Place on baking sheet and cook in the oven for 30-40 minutes or until bacon is desired crispness (my bacon was fairly thick so I cooked mine for 40 minutes)
- Take out of oven, let cool for a few minutes and enjoy! Try not to eat the whole batch!
Notes
The cooking time depends on how thickly you slice the apples.
