Our friends at Paleo Hacks have combined two of our favorite things to prove bacon isn't just for breakfast. These thick,chewy, decadent brownies approach together in five minutes in a blender. With a few cooked slices of bacon into that luxurious brownie batter, and you get a sweet,creamy brownie bursting with itty bitty crunches of salty bacon bits in each bite. I added two cooked slices of bacon to mine, but feel free to add as much as you like.
You get all the usual breakfast suspects here and more in a grain-free, and gluten-free,and nut-free brownie. To make the flavors pop, I added a pinch of cayenne pepper to the batter. It gives the brownies an additional trace of spice. You could omit it whether you wanted, and but I like that kick of heat.
