Brown Sugar Bacon Blt Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• For the candied bacon: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line one rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and another with parchment paper. Arrange the bacon slices very close together on the foil-lined baking sheet -- they should all fit on one.
• Sprinkle about 1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar and a few grinds of black pepper over each slice of bacon. Bake until the bacon is evenly browned and very crisp, 15 to 17 minutes.
• While the bacon is still hot, transfer to the parchment-lined baking sheet and divide into 2 groups, overlapping 5 slices slightly on top of each other. Let cool while you prepare the rest of the sandwich.
• For the sandwich: Lay the tomato slices on a large plate and season with salt and pepper. Spread the mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
• When the skillet is hot, add 2 slices of bread, mayo-side down, and toast until deeply golden brown. Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining 2 slices of bread. Let cool completely. If desired, spread more mayonnaise on the untoasted sides of the bread.
• To build each sandwich, layer half of the lettuce, basil, onion, tomato slices and bacon between 2 slices of bread. If desired, cut the sandwich in half.

Steps:

• Place bacon on a rack in a foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Place in a cold oven. Set oven to 350°. Bake for 20 minutes. Sprinkle bacon with brown sugar and cayenne pepper. Bake until sugar is melted and bacon is browned, 15-20 minutes longer., Meanwhile, combine mayonnaise, dill, garlic powder, pepper and salt; spread over cut sides of buns. Layer bun bottoms with lettuce leaves, avocado, bacon and tomato; replace bun tops.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line a baking pan with parchment paper and lay the bacon out side by side, overlapping just a bit, if necessary, to fit the whole package on the pan. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and place the pan on the top rack of the oven. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until the bacon is nicely browned and slightly crispy.* Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
