Ingredients

• 1 pound thick-cut bacon
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
• Cooking spray or parchment paper (for baking)

Timing

Making Billionaire Bacon Twists takes about 10 minutes for preparation and 20-25 minutes for cooking.

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Prepare the Bacon

1. Twist the Bacon: Take each slice of bacon and twist it tightly. This helps create a nice texture and allows the glaze to adhere better.

Step 3: Make the Glaze

1. Mix Glaze: In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, maple syrup, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika (if using). Mix well until it forms a thick paste.

Step 4: Coat the Bacon

1. Coat Bacon: Dip each twisted slice of bacon into the glaze, ensuring it is well coated. Place the glazed bacon twists on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5: Bake the Bacon

1. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and caramelized. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning, as cooking times may vary based on the thickness of the bacon.

Step 6: Cool and Serve

1. Cool: Once done, remove the bacon twists from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet.
2. Serve: Enjoy warm as a delicious snack, appetizer, or alongside your favorite brunch dishes!
