My husband came home from a men's breakfast raving about this praline bacon. Just be sure to make more than you think you might need...everybody wants seconds. -Myrt Pflannkuche, Pell City, Alabama

MAPLE PRALINE BACON

I recently took a weekend trip, and I experienced one of the best meals of my life at a fine little establishment that specializes in Southern cuisine. One of the things that made this meal so memorable was the praline bacon that I had, so I took it upon myself to recreate it. The only difference is that I like mine better.

Time 35m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound bacon
½ cup chopped pecans
3 tablespoons maple syrup
3 tablespoons butter
½ cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (135 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels.
  • Spread the pecans onto an unlined baking sheet, and toast 7 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown and aromatic. Watch the nuts carefully as they bake, because they burn quickly. Set aside to cool.
  • Stir the maple syrup, butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the hot candy resembles foamy caramel and a candy thermometer reads 270 degrees F (130 degrees C) (soft crack stage). Quickly stir in the pecans.
  • Toss the bacon in the candy mixture to coat each strip, and remove with tongs to cool and harden on the prepared baking sheet. Last but not least... eat up!

ORIGINAL PRALINE BACON RECIPE



Original Praline Bacon Recipe image

From Nola Cusine: "I don't think there is anything quite as sinful as Praline Bacon. In fact, it is so sinful it could have only been created in New Orleans, and in fact it was, at Elizabeth's Restaurant in 1998. The flavor marriage of pralines and good smoky bacon is so wrong that it just has to be right. Make this with breakfast, and you will absolutely blow your family and guests away with minimal effort!"

Time 30m

Yield 1 lb

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lb thick cut bacon (of good quality)
4 tablespoons cane syrup
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup pecans, toasted and chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place a wire rack on a sheet tray. Combine the Pecans and brown sugar. Lay the bacon side by side on the rack, place in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is sizzling and starting to brown around the edges. The object is for the bacon to cook about 3/4 of the way through before adding the topping.
  • Mix the 3 remaining ingredients.
  • Push the partially cooked bacon as close together as possible on the rack and brush with the cane syrup, this will give the topping something to grab on to. Cover generously with the Pecan/brown sugar topping. Place back in the oven for about 10 minutes more or until the topping is bubbly and the bacon is good and brown. Let cool.
  • As the Praline Bacon cools it will set up and have a nice chewy bite to it.

Tips:

  • Cook the bacon until crispy: This will help to render out the fat and give the bacon a delicious crunch.
  • Use real maple syrup: This will give the praline topping a rich, authentic flavor.

  • Serve the bacon warm: This is when it will be at its best, with a crispy texture and a delicious praline topping.
