Southern 4-Ingredient Green Bean Bundles

Ingredients (serves ~6)

  • 2 cans (or ~500 g fresh, blanched) green beans, drained
  • 8 slices bacon
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (or keto sweetener if you want low-carb)
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Preheat oven
    • 375°F (190°C)
  2. Make bundles
    • Divide green beans into small groups (8 bundles total).
    • Wrap each bundle with 1 slice of bacon.
    • Place seam-side down in a baking dish.
  3. Add sauce
    • Mix melted butter and brown sugar.
    • Spoon or brush over each bundle.
  4. Bake
    • Bake for 25–30 minutes, until bacon is cooked.
    • For crispier bacon, broil 2–3 minutes at the end.

😋 Result

  • Sweet + salty combo
  • Tender green beans wrapped in crispy bacon
  • Buttery glaze that caramelizes in the oven

💡 Tips

  • Use thin bacon so it crisps better.
  • Add a pinch of garlic powder or black pepper for extra flavor.
  • For holidays like Thanksgiving, double the batch—they go fast!
