Photo: Pecan Candied Bacon Bites Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/2 pound thick cut bacon
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 slices rye bread
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives, for garnish
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and top it with a baking rack. Arrange the bacon in 1layer on top of the rack.
Mix together the pecans, and brown sugar with a good grinding of pepper in a small bowl. Evenly sprinkle the mixture over the bacon. Put the bacon into the oven and bake until the sugar is melted and the bacon is crisp, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly until crisp.
While the bacon is cooking, toast the rye bread and cut each slice into quarters. In a small bowl mix together the cream cheese and Worcestershire sauce. To serve, spread the toast with the cream cheese mixture and top with 1 or 2 pieces of bacon cut to fit the bread. Garnish with chopped chives and serve.

Nice appetizer, come on people read the recipe before you rate it! Don't downgrade it because it's not healthy, you should know that by the ingredients...it was very good and my guests requested the recipe, I will definitely serve this again.

These were so yummy! I made them on the fly for a potluck, and they flew off the plate. We had left over rye bread and cream cheese and ate that as an appetizer the next day. Even just the bread and cream cheese was delicious!

A nice change of flavors for us. Includes many of our favorite ingredients, but never combined them in this way before. Made it for breakfast, but the time and prep work probably makes it more suitable as a brunch food or party food. Several of us thought it was like bacon candy. I put the chives in the cream cheese mixture instead of as a garnish by mistake. That turned out well as we found it tasted great on leftover rye toast.
