Dinner: Betty's Bacon Candy Gift from Viewer

Betty demonstrates how to make Bacon Candy. This candy is made by baking strips of bacon that are generously flavored with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground red pepper, and ground black peppercorns. Bacon Candy 8 slices bacon 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, firmly packed 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon ½ teaspoon nutmeg ½ teaspoon freshly-ground black peppercorns ¼ teaspoon ground red pepper Place bacon slices in a single layer on top of a broiler pan. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, red pepper, and ground black peppercorns. Sprinkle brown sugar-spice mixture generously and evenly over top of each bacon slice. Bake at 350 degrees (F) for 10 to 15 minutes, until bacon is crisp and glazed. Let bacon cool about 2 minutes before transferring to a plate line with paper towel. Cool for about one-half hour and then blot with paper towel, being careful not to remove the glaze. Use kitchen scissors to cut bacon candy into squares and place them in a small candy dish. Serve warm, for best taste. (You may refrigerate the Bacon Candy and reheat in microwave to renew the crispness of the bacon.) This Bacon Candy may be served as is, or it may be used as a garnish for omelets or quiche—or even frosting on cakes or cupcakes, if you like a sweet/salty flavor. I hope you love the Bacon Candy! --Betty Please subscribe: http://www.youtube.com/bettyskitchen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NEW Cookbook:  "Betty's Kitchen Cookbook:  2013 Recipes" (c) 2014 Also available:  "The Betty's Kitchen Collection:  Second Edition" (c) 2013 *Both can be ordered from http://www.amazon.com or http://www.createspace.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Betty's Website:  http://www.bettyskitchen.us ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Other places to watch Betty's Kitchen: Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/pages/bettyskitchen/166973502092 Pinterest:  http://www.pinterest.com/bettyskitchen/bettyskitchen/ Twitter:  https://twitter.com/Myshine Google :  https://plus.google.com/108882445101872897307/posts ifood.tv:  http://www.ifood.tv/bettyskitchen Roku:  http://www.rokuguide.com/channels/betty's-kitchen​

Health benefits of Betty's Bacon Candy Gift from Viewer

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly.
