Another Taste Of Home recipe for you today. This one comes with mixed reviews but well-liked overall and funny enough I thought I was going to be the one who loved this easy appetizer but it was Jim who loved them! These are sweet and salty all in one bite. I made one change to the recipe by using uncooked bacon and partially baking the bacon strips in the oven before continuing with the recipe. I find that the pre-cooked bacon you can buy in the store can be too salty.
INGREDIENTS
1 Tablespoon Butter
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
3 Tablespoons apricot preserves
1 tube refrigerated crescent rolls
1 package fully cooked, ready to eat bacon
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small skillet heat butter over medium heat, add onion. Cook and stir 3-5 minutes or until tender. Reduce heat to low and add preserves. Cook and stir until melted. Remove from heat.
Unroll crescent dough into one long rectangle. Roll into a 15 x 9-inch rectangle sealing the seams and perforations. Cut crosswise into 15 one inch strips.
Top each strip with one piece of bacon. Roll up jelly-roll style starting with the short side. Pinch the seam to seal and place on an ungreased baking sheet, cut side down.
Spoon apricot mixture over each spiral and bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and the crescent dough is cooked through. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!
