Angels on horseback is a hot hors d’œuvre or savoury made of oysters wrapped with bacon. The dish when served atop breads can also be a canapé. Angels on horseback have had limited popularity and have become regarded as a luxury or delicacy due to the elevated status of oysters in North America. The dish is typically prepared by rolling shucked oysters in bacon and baking them in an oven. Modern variations of angels on horseback include skewering and frying.
