Brown Sugar Bacon Twists - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/3 cup packed light-brown sugar or 10 packets Splenda sugar substitute
1 teaspoon mustard powder, to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
12 slices bacon

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F; soak 12 bamboo skewers in warm water (so they won't burn in oven).
Line the bottom of broiler a pan with foil for ease of cleaning, then top with broiler-pan rack.
Mix together brown sugar (or heat-stable sugar substitute, for diabetics and lowcarbers), mustard powder, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Pour onto waxed paper and lightly shake paper to spread mixture evenly.
One strip at a time, press the bacon into the sugar mixture to coat.
Twist each piece of coated bacon into a bamboo skewer and place on broiler-pan rack.
Bake 25 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees F, until almost crisp and sugar coating is bubbly.
Let strips cool 5 minutes before serving.
