Directions

1
Preheat oven to 375°. Place bacon in a single layer in a foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake until lightly browned, 16-18 minutes.

2
Remove bacon from pan. Discard drippings from pan; wipe clean if necessary.
3
In a shallow bowl, mix remaining ingredients. Dip both sides of bacon in brown sugar mixture, patting to help coating adhere; return to pan.
4
Bake until caramelized, 8-10 minutes longer. Remove immediately from pan.
