These Fig and Bacon Baked brie Bites are the perfect combination of cheesy, salty, and a touch of sweetness from the fig jam. These appetizers are perfect for any occasion.

Well, today is the last day of the year and also the last day to have an excuse to eat unhealthily. I know there are many of you out there who make the traditional “good luck” NYE dinner which is typically Southern Collard Greens so you will make lots of money; pork as a sign of prosperity; Black Eyed Peas to symbolize wealth; and cornbread, which symbolizes gold. There is nothing healthy about this meal but it is oh so comforting.

There are also some of you, like myself, who enjoy mini appetizers and finger-foods. Maybe it’s because I’ve had enough with large consumption and prefer to dial it down with just some of the best appetizers for New Year’s Eve parties. The thing is, I hardly ever go out to an NYE party. Typically I sleep through the New Year or just stay in bed until the ball drops. Although, it is a dream of mine to watch the ball drop in New York City. This year, I’m going to stick to the plan but make some classy New Year’s Eve appetizers for my family and me, starting with these Fig and Bacon Baked Brie Bites.

These Fig and Bacon Baked Brie Bites are the absolute easiest recipe that’s on my blog. You simply add the brie, bacon and fig jam to a tart and bake for few minutes. Just long enough for the cheese to melt and you have a delicious bite. I wish I could tell you that this recipe is more complicated or that it requires a more rigorous step to make the elegance of this New Year’s Eve appetizer make sense, but it is seriously that simple. So, when you’re making these appetizers you’re really going to eyeball the ingredients, pop them in the oven, and enjoy!
