Candied BLT Sliders

Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound bacon
  • 3 roma tomatoes sliced thick (4 slices/tomato)
  • 1 cup light brown sugar divided
  • 1 dozen slider buns
  • lettuce
  • Hellmann's Mayo

Instructions
 

for the candied bacon:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place the bacon slices in a medium bowl. Toss the bacon with 1/2 cup brown sugar to coat. Lay the bacon out on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, then turn the slices over and bake for another 10 minutes. Turn the slices over one last time and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes or until browned & crispy.

for the candied tomatoes:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Pour the remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar into a separate medium sized bowl. You can start with about 1/4 cup and add more as you go. Coat the tomatoes in the sugar on both sides. Lay the tomato slices on the same wire rack over the baking sheet you are using/used for the bacon in a single layer.
  • Roast the tomatoes for about 30 - 45 minutes, then turn the tomatoes over. Continue to cook for about 15 minutes more. You want the tomatoes to start to caramelize and turn an amber color.

to assemble the sliders:

  • Place the bottom slider bun on a plate. Top with a few small pieces of lettuce, candied bacon (I broke my bacon in half to fit better on the sliders) & a candied tomato. Add Hellmann's Mayo to the top slider bun & then place on top of the assembled slider. ENJOY candied goodness!
