Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a baking tray by fitting it with a wire rack to promote airflow and ensure even baking.
Lay the crackers flat in a single, even layer across the wire rack.
Cut the bacon strips into four equal pieces. Top each cracker with one portion of bacon, aligning them centrally. Any leftover bacon can be reserved for another use.
Distribute the brown sugar over each bacon-topped cracker, allowing for even coverage. Finish by sprinkling cracked black pepper over the top, adjusting the amount to suit your preference.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the bacon achieves a golden crisp and the sugar has melted into a glossy finish.
Remove from the oven and allow the crackers to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature as a crave-worthy, crowd-pleasing snack.
