Description
Paleo Bacon-Wrapped Banana includes bacon (free of nitrates and fillers) and under-ripe bananas or plantain.
Ingredients
12 slices of bacon, cut vertically (making 24) (free of nitrates and fillers)
5 bananas, cut into 1-inch pieces
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut the slices of bacon into 2 pieces (vertically). The bacon may not be completely straight. You may need more slices if required. Wrap a piece of the bacon around the 1-inch piece of banana. Secure with a toothpick. Lay the bacon-wrapped banana on the parchment paper. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the bacon is golden brown. Drain on paper towel. Cool for 10 minutes to room temperature before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute the bananas with green bananas or plantains. The ripe bananas offer a lovely contrast of flavours.
