SWEET BACON CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line two rimmed cookie sheets with aluminum foil.
• Arrange crackers on the prepared cookie sheets in a single layer. Place a piece of bacon on top of each cracker, then put about a teaspoon of brown sugar on top of the bacon.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is browned and crackers and bacon are glazed, about 45 minutes. Drain on paper towels before serving.

SWEET BACON CRACKERS

Steps:

• Take bacon out of the refrigerator and allow to soften slightly.
• Preheat oven to 275 degrees F.
• Prepare a baking sheet with sides by lining with non-stick foil or parchment paper. Spray foil or parchment with baking spray.
• Cut bacon slices into three pieces if using regular bacon, or cut slices in half if using center cut bacon.
• Wrap one bacon piece around one cracker. Repeat with all crackers.
• Lay on the baking sheet with seam side down. These can be placed close together, but not touching. Repeat with all crackers.
• Sprinkle the top of each wrapped cracker with brown sugar. Do not use too much or it will run off and create a hard caramel layer. Repeat with all crackers.
• Place into preheated oven and cook for 30 to 45 minutes. Longer may be required for crisper bacon.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes.
• Move to serving tray and enjoy!

SWEET-&-SPICY BACON CRACKERS

Steps:

• Place brown sugar, chili powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Stir until well combined. Set aside.
• Lightly spray a wire rack {I use a cooling rack} with non-stick cooking spray; set the rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
• Cut each bacon slice into 3 equal-sized pieces {I place the entire opened package on a cutting board and cut it into thirds all at once}. Wrap a bacon piece around the center of each cracker, positioning the "seam" on the bottom of each cracker. Place seam-side-down in a single layer on the prepared rack.
• Sprinkle a little of the brown sugar mixture on top of the bacon on each cracker.
• Bake at 250℉ until the bacon is crisp, about 1 hour and 20 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
• Not all crackers work well for this recipe ~ I tested with several. Keebler Club crackers work best, and are what's used in the photos for this post. Lance Captain's Wafers also work. Keebler Toasteds Buttercrisp round crackers also work, but are not as good as Club crackers and Captain's Wafers. Ritz crackers become soggy and do not work well at all.
• The crackers are best served warm right away or at room temperature within a couple of hours of baking. But we do also enjoy them cold, as well.
• Store leftovers in the refrigerator since they include meat. They do, surprisingly, hold a good bit of their crispness for up to about 3 days even when refrigerated.
• I have not tried reheating these. We eat our leftovers cold. If you do want to try reheating them, I recommend trying popping them back in a 250℉ oven for just a few minutes until warmed through.

HOLIDAY BACON APPETIZERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Lay the crackers face up on a large rack over a baking sheet (or broiler pan). Scoop about 1 teaspoon of the grated Parmesan onto each cracker. Cut the package of bacon in half (or cut pieces individually) and carefully, so the cheese doesn't fall off, wrap each cheese covered cracker with one half piece of bacon, completely covering the cracker. It should fit snugly around the cracker, but not be pulled too taut. Place the bacon-wrapped crackers onto the rack. Place the baking sheet in the oven for about 2 hours. Serve immediately or at room temperature!

BACON CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250°F. Line the bottom of a broiler pan with foil for easy cleanup.
• Cut the bacon slices in half lengthwise and then crosswire to create 4 long strips.
• Arrange the crackers on a work surface and wrap a bacon strip around each cracker, overlapping the ends on top.
• If making Herbed Bacon Crackers, tuck a base of rosemary tips under overlapping ends of bacon. If making Brown Sugar Bacon Crackers, carefully sprinkle 1/8 teaspoon brown sugar on the top side of each cracker, pressing to help it adhere (avoid getting sugar on the cracker or it will burn.)
• Set a perforated rack on top of the foil-lined broiler pan and arrange the crackers seam-side down 1/2 apart in a single layer and bake for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until the bacon is at your desired level of crispness. Transfer the crackers to a cooling rack and cool completely before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375*F
• Prepare a cookie sheet with a baking mat, non-stick foil or parchment paper.
• Wrap ⅓ piece of bacon around each cracker and place on the prepared cookie sheet, bacon ends down.
• Once the cookie sheet is full (or you've done as many as you wish), Bake for 15 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and carefully sprinkle a pinch of brown sugar or a drop of maple syrup over the top of each cracker. Try not to let the syrup or brown sugar touch the pan or it will be a sticky mess.
• Return to the oven and bake for 15 - 20 more minutes - until bacon is cooked through and not soggy.
• Remove from oven and serve immediately.
