Today, we’re sharing a recipe for Bacon Crackers (bacon wrapped cracker appetizers), both sweet and savory! Perfect for Game Day or snacking!
Bacon wrapped appetizers are the absolute best. Remember our Bacon Wrapped Jalapeño Poppers? How can you go wrong with bacon? These bacon crackers sound a little bizarre, but I promise you that they are fabulous.
We originally got this recipe from the Pioneer Woman’s A Year of Holidays cookbook. RecipeBoy Brooks shared bacon crackers here on the website back in 2015. We’re sharing it again today with new photos since Super Bowl is coming up!
Ingredients needed:
- country club-style crackers
