Praline Bacon

1 pound thick-cut bacon

Praline Mix
4 tsp Maple Bourbon Jalapeño Seasoning
2 Tbsp light brown sugar
1/2 cup pecan halves
Heat oven to 375ºF.

Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange the bacon slices in a single layer on a wire rack and set it in the prepared sheet pan. Bake until the bacon begins to brown, 30 to 35 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking.

Meanwhile, combine the seasoning, brown sugar, and pecans in a food processor (or zip-top bag). Pulse (or pound) until the pecans are finely chopped, about 15 pulses - aim for a consistency similar to coarse sand with some small chunks.

Remove the par-cooked bacon from the oven, sprinkle each slice evenly with the praline mix. Roughly ½ teaspoon per slice is a good starting point; add more, if desired. Return to the oven and bake until desired crispness, about 10 additional minutes.

Allow to cool on rack for 5 minutes before serving.

Sweet, Savory and Spicy

We love this recipe so so much! It’s great as written on bacon but we sprinkle it on - heavily ha, ha - on squash and sweet potatoes. We make batches and give as gifts. Sweet and spicy!
