#ButterballPartner Sweet & Spicy Turkey Bacon Panc #ButterballPartner Sweet & Spicy Turkey Bacon Pancake Dippers 🥞🌶️🍁 
 
These dippers are loaded with bold, smoky flavor from @butterballturkey turkey bacon and are so fun to eat!
 
INGREDIENTS:
1 package of @butterballturkey Lower Sodium Turkey Bacon
Brown sugar
Cayenne pepper
Pancake batter (use your favorite mix and prepare according to package directions)
Maple syrup, for dipping

INSTRUCTIONS:
On an unheated griddle or in a large skillet, place the turkey bacon in a single layer. Cook over medium heat for 7 to 9 minutes, flipping several times, until slightly crispy.
Sprinkle the turkey bacon with brown sugar and cayenne pepper. Flip to caramelize the sugar.
Remove the turkey bacon from the pan. Carefully clean the pan with a little water to remove the remaining brown sugar so it doesn’t burn.

Once the pancake batter begins to set, flip and cook until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through.
Serve with maple syrup and enjoy!
