Pioneer Woman Bacon Jam Recipe
I absolutely love making Pioneer Woman’s Bacon Jam.The combination of crispy bacon, caramelized onions, and a touch of coffee creates the perfect savory-sweet spread like nothing else I can imagine!You’ll need a few essential ingredients...including coffee!Tip: Make sure to cook the bacon until it’s crisp and drain the excess fat for the best results.Once you let the mixture simmer for about 30 minutes, your jam will develop that rich, deep flavor.
