Bacon Crack is an old recipe that I remember eating in the 70’s and 80’s and I just recently remembered how amazing these recipes are. Why on earth I forgot about them I will never know, but trust me they are something you want to try if you haven’t already.

There are several different recipes for these, both sweet and savory. I’m going to share a recipe for both types. They are so easy and can be put together quickly.

Here’s what you need:

Bacon Crack Ingredients

 

bacon, crackers, cheese

Savory:

  • club crackers
  • bacon
  • parmesan cheese

Sweet:

  • club crackers
  • bacon
  • brown sugar
  • maple syrup

Bacon Crack

  • Heat oven to 250 degrees.
  • Lay parchment paper or foil on a cookie sheet.
  • Spread out the crackers on the cookie sheet.
  • Top each with about a tsp. of either cheese or brown sugar.

  • Cut your bacon strips in half and wrap a piece around each cracker covering the cheese or brown sugar.

  • For the brown sugar bacon crack brush on maple sugar over the top.

  • Place in the oven and bake for one and half to two hours until bacon is crisp. (The cheese appetizers will take longer.)

There’s not much to them, but they sure are good. What kinds of party food do you enjoy?

Here’s another delicious appetizer.

  2. I am so intigued by this! A favorite in our house is bacon and brown sugar lil’ smokies, but I can see the crunch of the cracker being a winner, too!
