Bacon Wrapped Apple Bites - Angry Orchard Hard Cider Food Pairing

Angry Bacon Wrapped Apple Bites

Yield: 24 Bites

Portion Size: As Desired

Prep Time: 30 Minutes

Ingredients

1 large apple (honeycrisp, fuji or green), cut into 24 (1”x ¼”) pieces
24 pieces brie cheese, cut into (1”x ¼”) pieces
½ pound thick cut bacon, slices cut in half

Angry Glaze:

1 (12 fl. oz.) bottle Angry Orchard Unfiltered Cider
½ cup brown sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
Pinch of salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400F

Wrap apple and brie together with the bacon and secure with a toothpick.

For the Angry glaze:

In a small sauce pan over MEDIUM-HIGH heat, add all ingredients and reduce until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon- about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and reserve until ready to use.

To serve:

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp. Remove from oven, drizzle with the glaze and serve.

Note:

To keep apples from browning, place in a bowl of water with a splash of vinegar once they are cut.
