  • 30 small fresh basil leaves

  • 1
    Heat oven to 425°F. Spray 15x10x1- inch pan with cooking spray.

  • 3
    Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until bacon is brown. Serve warm with toothpicks.

  • Calimyrna figs are large, squat, green-skinned, white-fleshed figs grown in California. You can use dried apricot or peach halves, folding in half around the nut, instead of the figs.
  • Assemble appetizers 3 to 4 hours ahead of your party and refrigerate. You may need to add 1 to 2 minutes to the bake time.
  • Cottage bacon is taken from smoked pork shoulder. Although it is a leaner form of bacon, it does have more fat and more flavor than Canadian-style bacon.
