How to make Brown Sugar Bacon

Breakfast. My favorite meal of the day. Breakfast became even tastier when I discovered brown sugar bacon. I am not talking about the brown sugar bacon you buy in the store, I am talking about making it yourself. You will be shocked at how easy it is and ask yourself why you never tried it before!

You start by placing your bacon on a baking sheet (I use my Pampered Chef Bar Pan). Then sprinkle a very small amount of brown sugar over each piece of bacon. Bake in the oven at 400 degrees for approx. 15 minutes. I find I check on the bacon every few minutes after the 15 minute mark. There is a fine line between the delicious caramelized brown sugar and burned bacon.

Take the bacon out of the oven. Do not place on a paper towel to drain as it will stick to the paper towel. One reason I like to bake my bacon is because if you are serving a crowd you can cook a lot of bacon in 15 - 20 minutes and still have your stove top available for other breakfast delights.




I served my brown sugar bacon with my whole
wheat waffles and real butter.

  1. I absolutely love brown sugar with bacon but never thought about doing it that way. For an appetizer I'll wrap bacon around a lil smokie, coat with brown sugar and bake. Yum! I'll have to try this next time I'm making a big breakfast.
