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!
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.
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.
