Warning: this recipe is dangerously addictive. Once you take a bite of Bacon Maple Crack, there’s no going back. With layers of crispy bacon, buttery brown sugar, and rich maple syrup on top of flaky crescent roll dough, it’s sweet, salty, sticky, and crunchy — basically everything your taste buds dream about.
Whether you’re making it for a party appetizer, game day snack, or just a “treat yourself” moment, this indulgent snack is guaranteed to be the first thing gone from the table. It’s like bacon candy meets breakfast pastry… and it’s every bit as outrageous as it sounds.
🥓 Why It’s Called “Crack” (and Deserves the Hype)
The name says it all — it’s irresistibly craveable. The salty crunch of bacon meets gooey caramelized sugar and maple, baked onto a buttery base that shatters in your mouth. Think of it as the love child of a sticky bun and candied bacon, with zero effort and maximum reward.
📝 Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 oz)
- 1 lb bacon, cooked until just crisp and chopped
- ½ cup pure maple syrup
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- Optional: a pinch of cayenne pepper or cracked black pepper for a little kick
- Optional: chopped pecans for extra crunch
👨🍳 Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil (and spray with non-stick spray — this gets sticky!).
- Lay out the dough: Unroll crescent dough onto the sheet, gently pressing the seams together to form one solid rectangle.
- Brush with butter: Lightly brush the dough with melted butter for extra richness.
- Add the brown sugar: Sprinkle evenly over the dough.
- Top with bacon: Scatter the chopped cooked bacon across the top.
- Drizzle with maple syrup: Pour the maple syrup evenly over everything. Add a pinch of cayenne or black pepper if using.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the dough is golden and the topping is bubbling and caramelized.
- Cool before cutting: Let it cool completely to set (at least 15–20 minutes). Then cut or break into pieces.
