SUGAR AND SPICE BACON (OR TURKEY BACON)
This is how I fix bacon for scrambles, breakfast sandwiches, and just for munching. It is sweet, smokey, salty and just a tad spicy. I especially love it on Turkey Bacon because it makes boring old Turkey Bacon new again!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350*.
- Place bacon slices on a cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
- Mix together remaining ingredients. If you are using regular bacon, you may want to add garlic powder instead of garlic salt. I always use the lower sodium bacon and Turkey bacon, so I feel like I can add the garlic salt :).
- Remove from oven, flip bacon and sprinkle this side generously with sugar mixture. Return to oven for 5-7 minutes, until bacon is looking fairly crisp, but not completely done.
- Remove from oven and flip bacon again. Sprinkle this side with sugar mixture and return to oven until bacon reaches your desired doneness. (I usually allow about 5 more minutes.
- Remove bacon to paper towel lined plate to use in other recipes or start digging in, being careful not to burn your little fingers on the melty sugar!
Tips:
- For a sweeter bacon, use brown sugar instead of white sugar.
- To add a little heat, sprinkle some cayenne pepper or chili powder over the bacon before baking.
- For a smoky flavor, use smoked paprika or liquid smoke.
- If you want the bacon to be extra crispy, cook it for a few minutes longer than the recommended time.
- To make sure the bacon is cooked evenly, flip it halfway through the baking time.
