Lindas Caramelized Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a shallow bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Dip bacon slices in the brown sugar mixture to coat, and arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet.
• Bake 8 minutes in the preheated oven, turning once, until dark golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil (for easy cleaning) and place a wire baking rack on top.
• Combine the brown sugar and pecans in a food processor and process until the pecans are finely ground. Add the salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper and pulse to combine. Add the maple syrup and pulse again to moisten the crumbs.
• Cut each bacon slice in half crosswise and line up the pieces on the baking rack without touching. With a small spoon, evenly spread the pecan mixture on top of each piece of bacon, using all of the mixture. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the topping is very browned but not burnt. If it's underbaked, the bacon won't crisp as it cools.
• While it's hot, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels and set aside to cool. Serve at room temperature. (The caramelized bacon can be made early in the day and stored at room temperature.)

Steps:

• 1. In shallow bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon, mixing well. Put bacon in mixture, a few slices at a time, patting it to coat well on both sides.
• 2. Place bacon slices on ungreased sheet pan w/sides; bake 8 minutes, turning once, @ 350°F, until golden brown.
• 3. Note: Linda told me you can use this on turkey bacon as well; but do not use thick cut/slab bacon as it doesn't cook up as well.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F.
• Spray top of broiler pan lightly with no stick cooking spray; line bottom of pan with aluminum foil.
• Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in small bowl.
• Coat bacon slices with brown sugar mixture.

• Immediately remove bacon; place onto serving plate.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Line a 15x10x1-in. pan with foil., In a shallow bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Cut bacon strips crosswise in half; dip in sugar mixture to coat. Twist 2 or 3 times, then place in prepared pan. Bake until browned and crisp, 15-20 minutes. Freeze option: Freeze cooled bacon twists in freezer containers, separating layers with waxed paper. If desired, reheat in a microwave oven or on a foil-lined baking sheet in a preheated 350° oven before serving.
