My husband begs for me to make a batch every single Sunday. Best part is it takes only 4 ingredients.

These southern 4-ingredient brown sugar bacon crackers are the kind of snack my husband begs for every single Sunday. They’re salty, sweet, buttery, and just a little bit smoky—everything you want in a game-day or movie-night bite. This recipe is inspired by old Southern appetizer trays, where simple pantry staples like crackers, bacon, and brown sugar get baked together until they turn into something that tastes way fancier than it really is. It’s an easy, no-fuss recipe that you can throw together in minutes, then let the oven do the rest.

Serve these brown sugar bacon crackers warm right off the foil-lined baking tray, or let them cool slightly so the glaze firms up and they’re easier to pick up with your fingers. They’re perfect alongside a simple veggie tray, cheese cubes, or a bowl of mixed nuts if you’re putting together a snack spread. For a heartier Sunday setup, I like to put them out with a pot of chili or a big salad so everyone can nibble on something sweet and salty while the main meal finishes. They also pair nicely with iced tea, lemonade, or a cold beer for the grown-ups.

Servings: 24 crackers

24 buttery rectangular crackers (such as Club-style)

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup, then place a wire rack on top if you have one. If you don’t have a rack, you can lay the crackers directly on the foil.

Lay the buttery crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, with the crackers close together but not overlapping. This will be your base for the bacon and brown sugar topping.
