If you are looking for an over the top breakfast experience, these bacon fried Pop Tarts stand in stark contrast to popular and healthier morning meals like avocado toast and overnight oats. From the food blog Oh, Bite It!, the bacon-wrapped Pop Tarts are also slathered in an extra layer of frosting (because you probably needed the sugar).
If you want to attempt making your own bacon fried Pop Tarts at home, you will need three packages of Pop Tarts in any flavor as well as a pound of bacon and oil for frying (the food blogger opts for canola or vegetable oil). The added icing and sprinkles is optional, but it does give the corrupted Pop Tarts a more classic look.
