Canape, snack or treat on a cold day - snacky franks!

Not all of us can be saints all the time and these are something I spoilt my family with for a snacky lunch last weekend -  they were warm and tasty and great for a blistery cold winter's day.  I had something like this at a BBQ years ago - but they were actually fried not baked on the BBQ - so you could do that too -  I think these would be perfect for a warm canape for an afternoon in front of the footy.  Easy peasy to prepare too!


Ingredients:
500g cocktail frankfurts (If you or your children are susceptible to food colourings, remove the skins or buy skin-less franks)
3 rashers bacon
sweet mustard (I used swedish mustard - you can buy this one at Ikea - but wholegrain honey mustard is delicious also)


Method:
Preheat oven to 200 degrees c

Slice bacon in 1/3rds lengthwise and in 1/2 again so you have 6 long thin strands of bacon per rind.   It doesn't matter if they break...

Cut a slit in the frankfurts half and smear some mustard in the centre.

Wrap in a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick.

Place in a baking dish and spray with some canola oil before placing in the oven for 15 minutes or so.

Serve! They don't need sauce or anything - they are a bit crunchy and a bit sweet and might tasty!

What's your go-to snack on a cold day?  Hot chips with vinegar is one of my faves too!
