Spiced Pepita Bacon Brittle

  1. In a medium bowl, add pepitas, cinnamon and nutmeg.
  2. Toss to coat well.
  3. In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, water, butter and corn syrup and bring to a boil.
  4. Cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until the caramel is light brown and registers 300 degrees F on a candy thermometer, about 10 minutes.
  5. Remove from the heat and carefully stir in the pepitas and half of the bacon, then immediately pour the brittle, scraping if need be onto a large rimmed, non-stick and/or parchment lined baking sheet.
  6. Using the back of a large spoon, spread the brittle into a thin, even layer.
  7. Sprinkle with salt and remaining bacon.
  8. Let it cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  9. Break the brittle into large shards.
  10. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
