How to Make Spiced Bacon Twist

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Use a baking sheet with sides to contain grease.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 1 tablespoon mustard powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to your spice preference).
  4. Press each slice of bacon firmly into the spice mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated.
  5. Gently twist each bacon strip a few times.
  6. Arrange the twisted bacon strips on the prepared wire rack, ensuring they aren't overcrowded.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and golden brown and holds its shape. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
