Description

Deliciously sweet and savory bacon crackers topped with melted Parmesan cheese, perfect for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package of buttery, flaky crackers
  • 8 slices of thick-cut bacon
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare your baking sheet: Line with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  3. Arrange the crackers on the baking sheet, providing space for toppings.
  4. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy but not fully done; chop into smaller pieces.
  5. Sprinkle brown sugar on each cracker, followed by pieces of bacon, then a generous layer of Parmesan, finishing with a pinch of black pepper.
  6. Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  7. Cool for a few minutes before transferring to a serving platter.

Notes

Ensure bacon is sufficiently crispy but still flexible, as it will continue cooking in the oven. Avoid overloading the toppings to maintain cracker structure.
