Spread out on a cookie sheet or piece of aluminum foil. Line glass tray with aluminum foil and spread out bacon. Top with brown sugar. Set timer for 30 minutes and add brussels to oven. After 12 minutes, add bacon. After 22 minutes, add pepitas. In the last few minutes check to see if bacon or pepitas need to come out early.
