Instructions for Bacon Wrapped Munchkins
Preheat your oven to 300-325 degrees
Take each slice of bacon and cut it in half lengthwise. This will create two thinner strips of bacon from each slice.
Take a Munchkin and wrap a piece of bacon around it, securing the ends with a toothpick. Repeat this step for all the Munchkins.
Once all the Munchkins are wrapped, season the bacon with BBQ seasoning.

Place the bacon-wrapped Munchkins on the cooking rack, leaving a little space between each one.
Smoke or bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the bacon turns crispy and golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

Once cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the bacon-wrapped Munchkins to cool for a few minutes.
Carefully remove the toothpicks from each Munchkin and transfer them to a serving platter.
Serve the bacon-wrapped Munchkins while they are still warm and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors. These delectable treats can be enjoyed on their own or paired with your favorite dipping sauce.
Extra info – If you prefer a sweeter version, you can drizzle maple syrup over the bacon-wrapped Munchkins before baking. This will add an extra layer of sweetness and enhance the overall taste. Get ready to savor the incredible fusion of crispy bacon, tender Munchkins, and the delightful sweetness of maple syrup. These bacon-wrapped Munchkins are sure to be a hit at any gathering or a special treat for yourself. Enjoy!
