Ingredients
  

Bacon

  • 8 slices bacon chopped

Crescent Rolls

  • 1 package crescent rolls 8-ounce, sheet style preferred

Maple Syrup

  • ¼ cup maple syrup pure, divided

Brown Sugar

  • ¾ cup light brown sugar packed

Pecans

  • ⅓ cup pecan pieces optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large-rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
  • Cook the chopped bacon until soft but not crunchy, about 10 minutes at 400°F (200°C). Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
  • Roll out the crescent roll dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Pinch the seams together to make a single sheet. Use a rolling pin to fill the pan as much as possible. Prick the dough all over with a fork.
  • Brush half of the maple syrup evenly over the dough using a pastry brush. Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly on top, doing your best to cover the entire surface.
  • Distribute the cooked bacon pieces evenly over the brown sugar. If using, sprinkle the chopped pecans on top. Drizzle with the remaining maple syrup.
  • Bake for 22-25 minutes, until golden brown. Allow to cool completely before cutting into small pieces and serving.

Notes

For the best flavor, use high-quality pure maple syrup and consider adding pecans for extra texture.
