Candied Bacon

 
 

JUMP TO RECIPE

This is one of the easiest ways to spruce up your breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I love making candied bacon to use as a garnish on deviled eggs, soups, and even on a BLT. It doesn’t take a whole lot more effort than what it takes to make regular bacon.

Trust me. You’re going to love it!

Ingredients

Candied Bacon
  • 1 pound thick-cut bacon
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Place bacon strips on baking sheet being sure to keep bacon from touching each other. You don’t have to have a ton of space between each strip, but you don’t want them on top of each other.
  2. Place bacon in an oven that HAS NOT been preheated. Place oven on the bake setting for 400 degrees. Cook bacon for 10 minutes.
  3. After 10 minutes, remove bacon from oven and sprinkle brown sugar over bacon strips. Place bacon back in oven and cook for another 10 minutes, or until bacon is done.

Notes

You may notice the sugar burning around the bacon strips a bit. This is okay as long as you are not burning the bacon!
