Ingredients




About 12-14 dried figs
1/4 lb of applewood smoked bacon
toothpicks

Preparation

1 This is a quick and easy recipe, but bursting full of flavor.  Really, the only thing difficult with this recipe will be finding a good quality dried fig.  Once you have the figs, you're ready for action. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and while the oven is pre-heating, simply wrap the dried figs in a slice of bacon, securing the wrapped bacon with a toothpick. Once the figs are wrapped, place them in the oven and bake until the bacon is brown and crispy, about 20-30 minutes.  It's just that simple.
