Bacon Wrapped Apples with Blue Cheese

This yummy little treat is a perfect hors d'oeuvres or serve a few on top of mixed greens with a balsamic vinaigrette. They are very easy to make; the sweet/salty/creamy combination is perfect for the fall.

What you will need: (makes 10)

1 sweet, firm apple (Honeycrisp, Fuji, Gala)
5 slices of bacon
pinch of ground cinnamon
4 oz good quality blue cheese*

* I used Rogue Creamery's Oregon Blue. Basically, use any blue cheese expect the crumbles.

Cut the apple into ten equal slices, make sure the core is removed. Cut the pieces of bacon in half. Wrap the bacon around the apple and sprinkle with cinnamon. Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Place the apples bacon seam side down. Cook until the bacon is done, flip and continue cooking. Once the bacon is done, remove from the pan and add blue cheese on top.
