Instructions:
To create these delightful Bacon-Wrapped Prunes with Sage, start by laying out the bacon slices on a cutting board. Place one dried prune (pitted) at the edge of each bacon slice. Carefully roll the bacon around the prune, ensuring it’s tightly wrapped to secure the prune inside.
Once youโve rolled up all the prunes, arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This ensures they cook evenly and donโt stick.
Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven and bake until the bacon turns crispy and golden, typically around 15-20 minutes at 375ยฐF (190ยฐC). Once the bacon is cooked to your liking, remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
For an extra touch of flavor and aroma, garnish each bacon-wrapped prune with a fresh sage leaf. The herb complements the smoky bacon and sweet prune perfectly, creating a fragrant and flavorful appetizer.
Let the bocconcini rest briefly before serving, ensuring they cool enough to handle. These sweet and savory bites are best enjoyed warm and make for a delicious starter or finger food at gatherings. Enjoy!
