Woven Bacon Baskets: What I Learned
I went into making Woven Bacon Baskets with very little knowledge about what I was attempting. I know how to weave (Thanks art class!) and I know bacon is mostly fat, so it should be easy to just put them on the pan and go, right? No sticking? WRONG! I used my jumbo muffin pan, upside down on a cookie sheet, so the bowls would be nicely formed and I wouldn’t have to pry them out and and the grease would just run right off. Well, that was a great idea, but they stuck. Out of three, I had one I could salvage. So, the rule for making Woven Bacon Baskets is use parchment paper between the bacon and the pan. The result will be perfect Woven Bacon Baskets for you to fill.
Ingredients
- 4 slices of bacon for every basket
- jumbo muffin pan
- cookie sheet with lipped edges
- parchment paper, cut into squares slightly larger than the muffin cups

Instructions
- Separate each slice of bacon and cut in half.
- Weave strips over and under by making an L shape with two pieces.
- Add strips horizontally and vertically, folding back the other strips to go “under” until all the strips are woven in, four horizontally, and four vertically.
- Carefully place over the bottom of the muffin cup draped in parchment paper
- Bake in a 424 degree oven for 20 minutes. If the bacon is not crisp, bake in 5 minute increments until crispy.
- Let cool.
- Remove from cups and set upright.
- Fill with your favorite breakfast treats.
