Crunchy Coated Bacon!
Can you believe it’s almost Easter? Time to follow Mr. Bunny’s trail, hunt for eggs and devour our weight in chocolate eggs, jelly beans and peeps!
Growing up, we often went out for Easter brunch, but we haven’t done that in years. I have recently found some great breakfast casseroles that can be made ahead of time, so you can have most of the messy part out of the way on Easter morning.
We had these on Christmas morning at our house and they were all a big hit!
Don’t forget the bacon…….everything is better with bacon right?
Well, if you like bacon, you will LOVE bacon cooked this way! It’s easy too!!
Crunchy Coated Bacon
Ingredients
- 1 pound thick cut bacon
- 1 ½ cups flour
Instructions
- Line a large cookie sheet with edge with parchment paper or tin foil
- preheat oven to 350°
- coat thick sliced bacon in flour
- lay on cookie sheet (do not overlap)
- bake for 30 mins.
- *Be very careful removing the pan from the oven.
The bacon holds it shape, with very little curling and is SOOO good with the crispy crunchy coating the flour gives it!! – You’ll never want to fry bacon again!
I hope you get to celebrate with friends & family and enjoy the day on Sunday!

Yum, Maybe weekend Brunch casserole will be our dinner tomorrow! And I wish I had some bacon! Will have to try that soon! That's why I never make bacon, I hate to fry it!!
Yummy!!! I love breakfast food and BACON!
Too yummy! I'm bookmarking this for Easter. 🙂 Thanks.
I need to eat this all right now! Yum!
Cheryl I can not imagine how yummy that bacon is!
I haven't eaten bacon in years…can you believe that!
Just one of those things I don't let myself eat!
But this does look so scrumptious!
Everything looks wonderful!
We are having breakfast at the Farm Kitchen again this Saturday!

Yummy! I love make ahead casseroles, and yours look terrific. Thanks so much!
Drooling on my computer over here. All shades of yummmmm! Thanks for sharing!
i always cook my bacon in the oven, but i've never coated it with anything, might have to try that one!
Oh, my! I don't know which one sounds best to try first. They all sound delish! 😀
Oh, everything looks delicious! And that bacon…I've never heard of coating it, but it sounds terrific!
That praline french toast sounds amazing.
That praline french toast looks like a must try! YUMMY!
omg this is SO YUMMY!
cant wait to make it!
thanks it all looks so good I am book marking this!!!
I HAVE to try the french toast soon, it looks so good and easy too! Love that =]
Thanks,
Theresa
Oh WOW, I just love casseroles for breakfast – and that bacon? Shut UP! SO much easier and probably even tastier…and I didn't think that was possible!
Oh my! That ALL looks so good!
The Praline French toast looks wonderful and I love anything that makes my morning easier. Thanks for sharing!
I have got to try the bacon thing… looks so good, my stomace is grumbling now!
I saw you have a recipe for pasta with eggs and bacon, too. That is my secret trick to get my kids to eat a big, hearty breakfast: I make spaghetti carbonara for breakfast. Everyone loves it!
Every single one of those recipes look divine. I always bake my bacon, but will be trying the coating next time, since I always love a good crispy crunch. Well, I'm off to the kitchen for a snack!
Oh my goodness..that all looks so good! Thank you for the great recipes. I guess I will have to schedule a brunch real soon!
Thanks for the recipes! I made the bacon and sausage casserole for our band at church yesterday. I've made them a lot of casseroles and they said this was the best one yet! And I love how easy it is! Hope you had a happy Easter and thanks again! 🙂
Going to try the crunchy bacon this weekend as well as the other recipes! Thanks so much for posting them. My husband is counting the days!
I have made the breakfast casserole several times. I always have to cook it longer than 20 minutes; even with letting it set for 5 minutes before cutting, the eggs are still runny. Am I doing something wrong? I end up cooking it for almost 30 minutes each time.
Hmmm! I am definitely trying the crispy bacon this Easter brunch. It all looks absolutely delicious! Thank you, Cheryl!
What is the point of coating bacon in flour!? That is stupid and unhealthy. Bacon is fine on its own but once you add useless insulin-spiking carbohydrates to it, it’s a recipe for health disaster. Why not just, you know, cook your bacon until it’s crunchy if you like crunchy bacon?
why do we batter fry onion rings? pickles? dredge chicken in breadcrumbs or flour….. and so on? it’s a completely different taste experience. Cooking bacon until crunchy is not the same thing – don’t knock it until you try it – or not. I’m simply sharing something I enjoy, never claimed it to be healthy – I’m pretty sure fried bacon wouldn’t make to to any healthy eating lists no matter how it’s cooked. I’m guessing you don’t approve of covering apples in sugar and crust for apple pie either?
What is the point of leaving such a rude comment? Instead of making someone else feel crappy, maybe JUST DON’T MAKE THE BACON.
What a polite reply to a pointlessly snotty comment !
I’m always on the lookout for unique takes on everyday food – this one intrigues . Already thinking what I might add to the flour for a new taste..
Great idea !
