The holidays are the season of decadence and I’m no stranger to things that are a little over the top.  The thing is, I want them to be easy too.  Enter my Praline Bacon.  It is literally the stuff dreams are made of… if your dreams are made of bacony, sugary, caramely goodness.  And let’s be honest.. whose aren’t???

It’s the perfect treat to serve yours guests this holiday season whether in bite size pieces at a party or for breakfast or brunch.  And because it’s so easy, you’ll have more time to spend with family and friends! 

You're only 3 ingredients and about 30 minutes away from Praline Bacon deliciousness! I start mine with NatureRaised Farms Hickory Smoked Uncured Bacon.  It’s thick-cut, so it’s perfect for this recipe.  And it’s available in a two pack at Sam’s Club so it’s a great option to have some extra on hand for the holidays.  Find your local Sam’s Club.

To begin, preheat the oven to 400°F and line a jellyroll pan with foil. A jellyroll pan is simply a baking sheet with edges.  You’re gonna want to use a pan with edges to keep the bacon grease from pouring all into your oven.  Lining it with foil makes cleanup a breeze.  Find a cooking rack that is oven safe and place it inside the pan.  I happen to have a set that came with the pan and rack that works perfectly for this.

In small bowl, combine the brown sugar and finely chopped pecans.

You're only 3 ingredients and about 30 minutes away from Praline Bacon deliciousness!

Cook the bacon for about 15 to 25 minutes or until it is just starting to crisp around the edges.

Generously sprinkle the brown sugar mixture on each slice of bacon.  Return to the oven for about 10 minutes or until the bacon is crisp and the sugar has melted.

    Can the bacon praline be made ahead and put in fridge then taken out the next day

      I wouldn’t recommend it. Chances are the humidity in the fridge will cause the sugar coating to melt and run off.

    My mother makes this ever year for Christmas knowing I might be the only one who will eat it. Lol ( oooooh, I get to take some home with me!)
    I know it might sound silly as an adult being able to make it myself, but it’s just not the same as Mom’s. I’m so grateful after all these years that she is able to still make it.

    My favorite Christmas food is hard to say… I love so much of the special seasonal food. Cookies, hot chocolate, candy, spiced tea, cakes, pies, spiced nuts and all. Savory or sweet, I love it all.

    I think I love the memories of Christmas past most of all.

    A no bake cookie we call reindeer poop. I know not very appetizing, but my girls named it when they were young and it stuck. It has white chocolate, rice crispies, mini marshmallows. Not the whole recipe but you get the idea. They are addictive.

    Martha Washington Candy was made every year when the kids were home. We would make big batches and then divide into several bowls. Most was the traditional with coconut and chopped pecans and dipped in chocolate, (It freezes so well.) For the other bowls we left out the coconut and pecans and one had mint flavoring; flattened with a glass and dipped in chocolate. One had marschino cherries drained very well; wrapped the dough around and dipped in chocolate. One had orange flavoring and zest and dipped in chocolate. Another had lemon flavor and zest and dipped in white chocolate with lemon flavoring. Rum flavoring for the adults and dipped in chocolate. And this year I have already made two fruitcake batches. One doubled and today’s was tripled using a Fresh Apple cake recipe and fruits and nuts of YUR choice. Mine – fruitcake mix candied fruit, candied cherries, regular and golden raisins both, dried apricots snipped up with scissors, dried pineapple, pecans, walnuts and the SECRET to a moist, not dry fruitcake is to add 1 banana mashed up with a fork to your batter. Merry Christmas to Everyone!

    Our favorite is a cookie called “Buffalo Chips” filled with chocolate, coconut, pecans, oh so good and we make them only at Christmas so they are extra special. My husband even gets in on the stirring. Nothing better than a warm cookie and a cold glass of milk. (and its kind of a big batch of cookies)
