Million Dollar Bacon

Take brunch up a notch with this Million Dollar Bacon recipe! (It's also known as millionaire bacon.) It's sweet with a little heat and crowd approved!

One of the things that’s great about this recipe is how easy it is, so you don’t have to be a whiz in the kitchen and it’s also kid-friendly. The little guys had so much fun helping out with this one!

And there you have it! Served up alongside homemade Belgian waffles and poached eggs this Million Dollar Bacon recipe was a hit. The heat of all the peppers tempers out the brown sugar and makes for a really yummy brunch treat.

Also, just as a side note I’ve been on a serious poached egg kick lately. It’s the only way I like to eat my eggs! So stay tuned and I promise to share my super easy method for making poached eggs sometime soon.

Total time: 40 minutes
Servings: 12 Servings

Ingredients :

• 1lb thick cut bacon
• 6 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions :

• Begin by preheating your oven to 350° and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. (You can sub aluminum foil if you don’t have any parchment paper lying around.)
• Sprinkle the bacon with about half of the brown sugar.
• Sprinkle on the red pepper flakes, cayenne and cracked black pepper.
• Sprinkle the rest of the brown sugar on the top and then give it a good pat all over. Think of it as a rub that’s going to coat your bacon in candy-like goodness. You don’t really have to worry about coating the reverse side because as the bacon cooks, the sugary coating will run under it and coat the other side of the bacon, too.
• Bake for 20 – 30 minutes, until it reaches your desired crispiness. Done and done!
