Mix together 1/3 cup maple syrup and ½ cup brown sugar. After placing the bacon on your pan, use a pastry brush to coat each slice with the sugar mixture. Continue baking the bacon normally until it reaches the desired level of crispiness.  Cook the candied bacon on a rack for maximum crispiness. Make sure to protect the rack from the sugar mixture with foil or parchment paper. Candied bacon is delicious by itself but is also an excellent addition to sandwiches and breakfast platters. Many delicious dishes can be wrapped in bacon and baked in the oven. For example, make bacon-wrapped cookies by wrapping balls of cookie dough in a piece of bacon before cooking. Cheese stuffed jalapenos, meatballs, and chicken breasts can also be wrapped in bacon. Keep in mind that the bacon will need fifteen to twenty minutes to cook. Experiment by wrapping both sweet foods and salty foods in bacon. Bacon is good with almost anything! Bake a tray or two of bacon in advance. Then, store the cooked bacon in your refrigerator for seven to ten days. Add bacon to your sandwiches throughout the week or crumble up a few pieces to add to a salad for a flavor boost. Cover the bacon before you store it by using plastic wrap or a storage container with a lid.

Summary:
Bake candied bacon. Wrap your favorite foods in bacon. Prepare a week’s worth of bacon.
