2 Notes
For the pumpkin spice glaze I combined the following ingredients:
1 cup powdered sugar2 tablespoons milk1 teaspoon cinnamon1/2 teaspoon ginger1/4 teaspoon allspice1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
After mixing everything up I covered a baking sheet with a piece of tinfoil, laid out a half pound of bacon strips and then covered each one of them in my pumpkin spice glaze using a pastry brush. I then put my bacon in the oven at 400 degrees for seven minutes before taking it out, flipping it and brushing the other side in pumpkin spice glaze as well. After that I put it back in the oven for an additional seven minutes. Based on the way my kitchen smelled while I was cooking the bacon I could tell how delicious it was going to taste even before I pulled it out of the oven. It was like some form of sick torture or something, but at the same time I loved every second of it! Ok… this is getting weird…
Anyway, the bacon turned out almost like a candied bacon, but trust me, it tasted WAY better than regular ol’ candied bacon. My problem with candied bacon is that most of the time it just turns out chewy. My pumpkin spice bacon on the other hand was a little bit chewy from the sugar and spices, yet still managed to maintain that crisp bacon crunch that I love. All in all I’d say that my pumpkin spice bacon was quite a hit!
