Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Wash and trim the green beans, removing any tough ends. Divide the green beans into 8 equal portions.
Wrap each portion of green beans with a slice of bacon, overlapping the ends slightly. Secure the bundles with a toothpick if needed, and place them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, garlic powder, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Brush the butter mixture generously over each green bean bundle, making sure to coat both the bacon and the beans.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the green beans are tender.
Remove the bundles from the oven and let them rest for 2–3 minutes. Carefully remove any toothpicks before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish to complement your meal and enjoy!
