A delightful appetizer combining the sweetness of pineapple with the savory flavor of bacon, perfect for any gathering.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and crispy bacon.
Cut each slice of bacon in half and set aside.
Using thick-cut bacon helps achieve a better texture.
If using fresh pineapple, cut it into bite-sized chunks.
Ensure the pineapple chunks are similar in size for even cooking.
Wrap each pineapple chunk with a half slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
Place the wrapped pineapple seam-side down to prevent unwrapping.
Place the wrapped pineapple on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Sprinkle with brown sugar and chili powder.
Using a wire rack allows the bacon to crisp evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy.
Check halfway through and rotate the tray for even cooking.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
