# Glazed Peanut Butter Bacon DudeFoods' Peanut Butter Bacon Makes Savory Meet Super Sweet By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2014-08-04 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peanut-butter-bacon References: [dudefoods](http://dudefoods.com/elvis-bacon/) & [dudefoods](http://dudefoods.com/) DudeFoods' glazed peanut butter bacon recipe is a take on the classic Elvis Sandwich without any of the breaded ingredients. Instead of making a delicious peanut butter, bacon and banana-filled sandwich, this bacon recipe makes it possible to enjoy all of these flavors in a single bite. The recipe is reduced to just a few ingredients, including sugar, [smooth peanut peanut butter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flavourmingle-spicy-peanut-butter), milk and vanilla to make the glaze, plus some [dried banana pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milk-chocolate-peanut-butter-banana) for a little extra crunch. The sticky nature of the glaze makes it easy to adhere the banana pieces to the bacon, and to make things as easy as possible, DudeFoods notes that the wash can be brushed over the [bacon strips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-label-cinnamon-toast-bacon) after they've been cooked. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 74% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Savory-sweet Combinations:** Opportunities exist for food companies to create unique flavor combinations that blend savory and sweet ingredients. - **Easy-to-make Recipes:** There is a growing market for recipes that use limited ingredients and are quick to make, enabling consumers to save time in the kitchen. - **Health-conscious Twists:** Health-conscious brands could create a healthier version of this recipe by substituting ingredients like sugar and bacon with natural sweeteners and lean proteins. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food and Beverage:** Opportunities exist within the food and beverage industry to create similar savory-sweet recipes that appeal to consumers. - **Cooking and Kitchen Supplies:** Companies that produce cooking and kitchen supplies could create products that help consumers prepare easy-to-make recipes. - **Health and Wellness:** Health and wellness brands could create products and recipes that are healthier versions of existing comfort foods. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bacon-Themed Pancake Specials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-graceland-pancake.md) - [Bacon-Topped Peanut Butter Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supersonic-double-cheeseburger.md) - [Rich Sandwich-Flavored Whiskeys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elvis-whiskey.md) - [Savory Bacon-Infused Shakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sonic-peanut-butter-bacon-shake.md) - [Candied Bacon QSR Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hardees-candied-bacon.md) - [Sweet Candied Bacon Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candied-bacon-whopper.md) - [Upcycled Bacon Jams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tbj-gourmet-bacon-jam.md) - [Candied Bacon Menu Lineups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candied-bacon-lineup.md) - [Peanut Butter-Banana Whiskeys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/select-club-1.md)
