Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Bacon strips
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 24 pieces Ritz crackers
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 24 pieces Toothpicks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Cut each strip of bacon in half crosswise, creating 24 smaller pieces.
On a flat surface, lay out the Ritz crackers. Spread about 1 teaspoon of creamy peanut butter evenly onto each cracker.
Place one Ritz cracker (peanut butter side up) on a piece of bacon. Wrap the bacon around the cracker to fully enclose it and secure it with a toothpick.
Repeat this process for all the crackers and bacon pieces, placing each wrapped appetizer onto the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly sprinkle brown sugar over the top of each bacon-wrapped cracker for a hint of sweetness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and cooked through.
Remove the appetizers from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy these sweet and savory bites!
