If you are obsessed with bacon and also enjoy cinnamon buns, you will absolutely love these pig-shaped bacon buns. The Cinnabacon Piglets recipe is from krivas on Instructables.
The adorable snack is essentially a cinnamon bun with a candied bacon surprise at the center. To make your own cinnamony bacon buns at home, you will need yummy ingredients such as bacon strips, brown sugar, ground cinnamon and stuff to make dough. You will also require a mini muffin tin, cupcakes and an edible marker, which is used to make the little piggies' eyes.
These animalistic treats would be great for celebrating Chinese New Year if it was the year of the pig. They are also great for entertaining.
