Instructions
Heat the oven to 500°F and arrange a rack in the middle.
Combine the prunes, port, and sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the port thickens into a loose syrup, about 15 minutes.
Let cool slightly, for about 10 minutes, then drain the prunes of excess syrup or reserve syrup for other uses (for example, serve with seared meats or drizzle into a glass of seltzer or Champagne).Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, then set a cooling rack over the foil.Wrap a piece of bacon around each prune and secure with a toothpick.
Place the prunes at least 1 inch apart on the cooling rack.
Bake for 7 minutes, then flip the prunes with tongs and continue to bake until crispy, about 7 to 9 minutes more.
Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Cool slightly before serving.
