#7 - Bake-In Oozy Bread

My husband recently bought this book called This is Why You're Fat (When Dreams Become Heart Attacks). It is an awful book full of horrible foods. LOL The cover features a bacon cheeseburger with Krispy Kreme donuts as buns. :) So, some of his friends at work decided to have Fat Thursday tomorrow. Peter is taking a dish that I discovered while watching the Rachael Ray show a few years ago. Here it is!

YUM - 5 stars...if you like bacon and maple syrup together.

EASE - 4 stars The most time consuming part is preparing the bacon.

HEALTH - 1 star Yep...it's bad. Not a single redeeming quality.

Bake-in Oozy Bread
Source: Rachael Ray show

1 can of large biscuits (like Grands...be sure to get the plain kind, not the extra buttery kind)
1 lb of bacon, cut up
1 cup of maple syrup (I use the real stuff. I've never tried pancake syrup here)
1 stick of butter

Pre-heat oven to 375°F.

Place a medium skillet over medium-high heat and add bacon. Cook until crisp, about 8-10 minutes, drain and reserve.

Place a small saucepot over medium heat and add the maple syrup and the butter – do not bring up to a boil. Cook until butter is melted, then turn the heat off and reserve.

Butter or spray a 3-inch x 9-inch loaf pan. Pour a couple tablespoons of the maple/butter sauce in the bottom. Layer three of the biscuits in the bottom of the pan. Tear up one of the biscuits and fill in any open spaces with the pieces. Don't worry if any still remain, the ooze will fill those in.

Sprinkle half of the reserved bacon onto of the biscuits and top with about 1/2 cup of the butter/syrup mixture. Place the remaining biscuits on top (I tear these up into pieces), sprinkle the rest of the bacon over them and top with the remaining maple sauce.

Transfer to oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. Remove and immediately turn over onto a serving dish.
