Prep time 10 minutes
Cook time 15 minutes
Total time 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 package bacon cut in half
  • 2 Granny Smith apples cored and thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoon sugars
  • 1 teaspoon apple pie spice
  • 16 thick Cheddar cheese slices

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and set aside.
  • Cook the bacon in batches until just about crispy. You want to under cook them a bit because they'll continue to cook in the oven. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss together the apples, lemon juice, sugar and apple spice seasoning.
  • Place a slice of cheese on top of a slice of apple and then wrap in two half pieces of bacon. Hold in place with a couple of toothpicks. Place on prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the bacon crisps and the cheese melts. Transfer to a platter and remove toothpicks before serving.
