Ingredients

Recipe

1/3 Cup

BeeMaid Honey

1 Tbsp

Olive Oil

1/2 Tsp

Garlic Powder

1/2 Tsp

Smoked Paprika

1/2 Tsp

Applewood Seasoning

3 Tbsp

Brown Sugar

1/2 Tsp

Nutmeg

1/2 Tsp

Cinnamon

1/4 Tsp

Cayenne Pepper

2-3

Sweet Potatoes (peeled and cubed)

1 lb

Bacon (sliced)

Directions

Preheat oven to 400F. Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set a metal baking rack overtop (to catch any excess grease).
Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into 1/2 inch cubes. Place the cubes on a large plate and microwave for 4 minutes, allowing the centers of the sweet potatoes to become slightly soft.
Using thick wooden or metal skewers, place the sweet potato and folded pieces of bacon on the skewers, alternating them in a pattern. Be careful not to press the sweet potato and bacon pieces too tightly together to ensure they cook through on all sides. Repeat this step until there are about 8 pieces per skewer.
In a bowl, combine the garlic powder, paprika, applewood seasoning, cayenne, nutmeg, cinnamon and sugar together. Then on a shallow plate, pour the spice mixture out in an even layer.
Whisk the BeeMaid Honey and olive oil together in a separate small bowl and then brush the mixture overtop of each skewer, ensuring all sides have a light glaze.
Slowly twirl each of the skewers overtop of the spice mixture to coat the edges of the bacon and sweet potatoes.
Place the skewers on the metal baking rack in an even later and sprinkle the leftover spices all over of the skewers.
Bake in oven for approx. 30-40 minutes or until the sweet potato is tender and the bacon is cooked and slightly crispy.
Add an additional drizzle of BeeMaid Honey on top and enjoy!

(Note: If grilling skewers on BBQ, set heat to medium and grill skewers for approx. 15 minutes).
