Candied Bacon Crackers

If you’re looking for a simple snack that’s positively irresistible, look no further than these Candied Bacon Crackers. They combine the crunch of a butter cracker with the smoky sweetness of candied bacon and you only need three ingredients to make them. (Five, if you count a pinch of cayenne and a pinch of black pepper as ingredients!) I love them as an alternative to crackers and dip, but they’re also a great way to round out a snack spread for your next party.

 

INGREDIENTS

1 package rectangular butter crackers

8-10 slices bacon

3/4 cup brown sugar

A pinch cayenne pepper

A pinch freshly ground black pepper

 

HOW TO MAKE CANDIED BACON CRACKERS

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top.

Arrange crackers on wire rack, leaving some space in between.

Slice bacon into thirds or fourths, depending on what fits crackers best. Place bacon lengthwise on each cracker.

Sprinkle brown sugar on top of each slice of bacon, about 1 heaping teaspoon per cracker. Top with cayenne and black pepper.

Bake until brown sugar starts to melt and bacon becomes crisp, 15-20 minutes.

Allow crackers to cool and harden before serving. Enjoy!
