BOISE, Idaho — Bacon-wrapped apple Ingredients:
1 pound of bacon
2 large apples cut into cubes
cinnamon sugar for sprinkling
toothpicks for bacon and apples
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Lay bacon on cutting board and roll apple up. Cut off remaining bacon, a single layer of bacon, and use a toothpick to secure bacon to the apple.
Sprinkle cinnamon sugar over bacon wrapped apple or roll it in the mix to coat it. Place bacon wrapped apples on a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
Bake wraps for 10 minutes each side at 400 degrees.
Chill for an hour before serving.
Spicy cranberry sauce ingredients:
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1 large shallot, finely chopped
2 jalapeños, seeds removed from 1 chili, both chilies very thinly sliced
1 lb. fresh cranberries
⅔ cup honey
½ tsp. kosher salt
2 tsp. finely grated lime zest
2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
Directions:
Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook shallot and jalapeños, stirring often until shallot is starting to turn golden, about 4 minutes.
Add cranberries, honey, and salt and increase heat to medium-high.
Bring to a boil and cook, stirring often and reducing heat as needed to avoid scorching, until cranberries burst, juices are syrupy, and pan is visible when a wooden spoon is dragged across the bottom, 12 to 15 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in lime zest and juice; let cool for an hour before serving.
Plate the apple wraps around the bowl of spicy cranberry sauce so your guest can dip the wraps.
Enjoy!
