Candied Bacon Wrapped Crackers

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 2

Cut the bacon strips to wrap around the crackers, doubling the layer on the cracker bottom.

Step 3

Arrange the bacon wrapped crackers on the rack fitted inside the foil lined baking sheet.

Step 4

Combine the brown sugar, cayenne pepper and black pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle brown sugar mixture generously over the crackers.

Step 5

Bake until bacon is browned, about 15 minutes. (Your cooking time may vary depending on your bacon thickness.) Remove from oven, cool for 5 minutes, and turn over crackers using a spatula.

Step 6

Sprinkle the bacon-topped crackers generously with the brown sugar mixture and return to oven. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 15 more minutes.

Step 7

Remove the pan from the oven and let the crackers cool for at least 5 minutes. Serve the crackers warm or at room temperature.

Step 8

Transfer to a serving platter and enjoy! Makes about 2 dozen crackers.
