Bacon Pop-Tart Time

A while back I had an epiphany, bacon pop-tarts. I like bacon and I like pop-tarts, so combining the two would create something awesome. I began by researching how to make pop-tarts. I found some websites that I thought might be helpful. The bacon jam seemed like it might be too spicy, and I did not want to spend that much time on it. The prospect of making a crust seemed like it would take too long also, so I went with regular bacon and crescent rolls for the crust. I decided that since most pop-tarts were sweet that I would make one pop-tart with blackberry jam. Sweet and savory together as one. That should work right?


Bacon frying in the skillet


I chopped the bacon, and then added some blackberry jam


I spread the mixture over the crescent rolls


I made one of just bacon


I pushed down the edges with a fork and made vent holes


Nice and brown right out of the oven


The regular bacon one was the best loved.


I personally enjoyed the bacon and blackberry jam

All in all everyone enjoyed it. Next time I will work on making the bacon jam and maybe even the crust. The regular bacon one was crumbly and needed some way to stay together. I just need a way to preserve them so I can have them whenever I want.

Will, you could make a bunch of them and put them in the freezer, to serve you could put them in the toaster oven. great invention!
