Recipe Inspired by Fruitables Popular Flavor Mashups: Bacon Wrapped Apples

Human Recipe Inspired by Fruitables Flavor
Recipe Inspired by: Fruitables Skinny Minis Apple Bacon, Fruitables Baked Crispy Bacon & Apple, and Fruitables Biggies Crispy Bacon & Apple
Inspired by bacon wrapped dates, one of the great holiday bites, this snack is an everyday version that’s a bit lighter, and lower in carbs and sugar. Plus, it’s easy and just tastes delicious — because apples and bacon! These make a perfect afternoon snack, but also work really well as a breakfast bite and can easily be served as an appetizer at your next cocktail party!
Bacon Wrapped Apples
Recipe by Stacie Billis for Fruitables
Makes 8 bites
1 apple
Freshly ground black pepper
8 strips of bacon
1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
- Core and cut the apple into 8 wedge-shaped pieces. Toss with freshly ground pepper: don’t be shy!
- Wrap each piece of apple in a strip of bacon and, as best you can, place seam side down in a medium pan that has a lid (ideally one that’s non-stick or cast iron).
- Set the pan over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of water, cover, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, allowing the apples to soften and the water to cook off.
- Uncover and continue cooking, turning the pieces to ensure that the bacon crisps up on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Right before turning off the heat, drizzle the apples with maple syrup and cook for another 30 seconds. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
