This Bacon Wrapped Avocados appetizer recipe is sure to win over everyone you know.Crispy brown sugar bacon wrapped around a creamy avocado, and it’s easy!
INGREDIENTS:
4-6 Strips of Bacon
1 Avocado
1/3 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2-1 Teaspoon Chili Powder
DIRECTIONS:
1) Heat the oven to 425
2) In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and chili powder. Set aside Line a baking sheet with tin foil.
3) Cut open the avocado and remove the pit. Slice about 3/4″ slices lengthwise through the avocado, and then cut through the middle to cut all of the slices in half so that you have thick chunks of avocado.
4) Cut each slice of bacon in 3-5 pieces and wrap each piece around the avocado. Roll in the brown sugar mixture and place on the baking sheet.
5) Bake at 425 for 10-15 minutes. Remove from the oven to a platter and stick a tooth pick in each for serving.
Notes:
I pit my avocados by smacking my blade into the pit and giving it a quarter turn. The pit pops right out leaving the perfect flesh behind.Depending on the size of your avocado pieces and length of your bacon you may get a different number of chunks of bacon. I wrap an end around the first piece of avocado just to measure and then cut all of the bacon together accordingly.
