- 2 Tbsp Maple Syrup
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F and prepare an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet, and add the baking rack on top
- In a small bowl, add in your brown sugar and gingerbread spice mix and mix together.
- Lay each of your pieces on bacon on the baking rack and brush a light layer of maple syrup on both sides.
- Once a light layer of maple syrup is on both sides, top each slice with a coating of the brown sugar gingerbread mixture. Be generous!!
- Bake your candied bacon for 20-30 minutes or until it is to your desired crispiness.
- Let harden, cool, serve and enjoy!
