This recipe requires only four ingredients and a little patience. What can be better than a buttery club cracker, topped with sweet brown sugar or savory parmesan cheese, and wrapped in BACON?! Is this a trick question? Get in my belly! They are in my oven as I type this, and they smell amazing. Can't wait to try one (or more). The recipe in The Pioneer Woman's Holiday cookbook, and her recipe for the same online contradict eachother a bit. Online it calls for 1 TSP of brown sugar and/or parmesan cheese, and in the book it calls for 1 TBSP. That's a big difference. I personally opted for the 1 TSP. Here's the easy recipe!
Sweet and Savory Bacon Crackers
As adapted from The Pioneer Woman Cooks: A Year of Holidays
36 Club Style Crackers (1 sleeve)
Grated Parmesan Cheese
Brown Sugar
1 lb bacon (regular thickness)
Preheat oven to 250. Line crackers on a cooling rack placed on a baking sheet. Top each cracker with either 1 TSP of parmesan or brown sugar. I did a mix of both! Cut the pound of bacon in half, and wrap one half of a piece of bacon around each cracker, making sure to cover the cracker as much as possible. Bake at 250 for 2 hours. Serve warm. (On the Pioneer Woman cooking blog, she states that you can take the baked crackers and freeze them for a later date. Just thaw them and pop them in an oven to warm for about 10 minutes.) Enjoy!!
