Author: Melody Robinson Wright
- Fresh Green Beans
- Cinnamon
- Brown Sugar
- Bacon
- Salt
- Pepper
- Preheat oven to 375
- Trim and wash the green beans and pat dry. Be sure to remove excess water as you'll be tossing the green beans with bacon fat.
- Set the green beans aside and mix together cinnamon and brown sugar. The amount you need will be dependent on the amount of bacon you're cooking.
- Chop the bacon into small bits and toss in the cinnamon and brown sugar mixture.
- Cook the bacon on low mixing frequently.
- The bacon will begin to caramelize quickly but keep stirring to keep them from forming clumps.
- After the bacon has cooked, pour off the bacon fat and save it.
- Allow the bacon fat to cool slightly then toss with the green beans.
- Place in oven and allow to cook until desired doneness.
- Crumble the caramelised bacon atop the green beans and serve warm.
