These prunes in crispy bacon, often known as devils on horseback, are a timeless addition to any party platter or festive spread. This dairy-free snack offers a sophisticated balance of flavours, pairing the natural chewiness and sweetness of soft dried prunes with the salty, savoury crunch of grilled streaky bacon. They are incredibly simple to prepare, requiring just three ingredients and minimal effort, making them a reliable choice for effortless entertaining or a quick evening treat.
While they are a classic Christmas canapé, these bite-sized morsels are delicious served year-round alongside a glass of chilled dry cider or as part of a tapas-style selection. The high heat of the oven helps the bacon fat render until perfectly crisp, while the prunes become warm and jammy. For the best results, ensure you use pitted prunes to make them easy for your guests to enjoy in one delicious mouthful.

Ingredients for Prunes in Crispy Bacon
vegetable oil, for greasing
4 streaky bacon rashers (strips)
8 soft dried pitted prunes
How to make Prunes in Crispy Bacon
Preheat the oven to 200°C (204°C/gas mark 6). Brush a baking tray with the oil.
Cut each bacon rasher in half lengthways. Lay a strip of bacon on a chopping board, place a dried prune at the top edge and roll, wrapping it tightly around the prune. Pierce a cocktail stick through the centre of the wrapped prune to secure. Repeat with the remaining bacon and prunes.
Place the prunes on a the prepared baking tray and bake them for 10–15 minutes, turning over half way through cooking, until the bacon is slightly crispy on both sides.
