For a spicier kick, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the brown sugar before sprinkling it over the bacon. Thick-cut bacon works best for this recipe, as it provides a better balance of meat and fat, resulting in a more satisfying texture. Ensure the bacon is cooked to your desired level of crispness. Some prefer a slightly chewy bacon, while others prefer a perfectly brittle texture. Adjust baking time accordingly.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Prepare two baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper or aluminum foil, then lightly coat with cooking spray. (5 minutes)
02
StepWrap each breadstick with a strip of bacon, leaving approximately 1 inch of breadstick exposed at each end. Place the bacon-wrapped sticks onto the prepared baking sheets. (20 minutes)
03
StepGenerously sprinkle the dark brown sugar evenly over the bacon-wrapped breadsticks, ensuring a thorough coating. (5 minutes)
04
StepBake in the preheated oven until the bacon is beautifully crisp and the brown sugar has melted into a luscious glaze, approximately 50 to 60 minutes. Monitor closely to prevent burning.
05
StepOnce baked, carefully transfer the candied bacon sticks to a sheet of parchment paper or waxed paper that has been lightly coated with cooking spray. Allow them to cool completely before serving. The cooling process will allow the glaze to set and the bacon to reach its optimal crispness. (30 minutes)
