Description
Million dollar bacon is the perfect combination of sweet and spicy. This bacon goes good with any breakfast and even a cold beer.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Thick Sliced Bacon
- 6 Tablespoons Brown Sugat
- ½ teaspoons Black Pepper
- ¼ teaspoons Cayenne Pepper
- ½ Tablespoons Red Chili Flakes
- 1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup, For Drizzling (optional)
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix together brown sugar and spices. Lay bacon flat on baking sheet. Put a generous amount of the sugar and spice mixture on the bacon. Press into bacon. Flip bacon and repeat process.
Bake in oven 35 to 40 minutes.
Note: Make sure you watch the bacon near the end of the cooking time. You do not want the sugar to burn. Letting it carmelize is good but burn is not. Keep an eye on it the last few minutes. The maple syrup drizzle at the end is an option. I happen to like the spicyness and don’t do it but try it both ways and see what you like. Use real maple syrup.
