Directions
Step 1
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until they are crisp and golden brown, about 6-8 minutes.

Carefully reserve 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease in the skillet and discard the rest.

Lower the heat to medium-low and whisk the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and water into the bacon grease until fully combined and smooth.
Step 5
Allow the mixture to heat through gently, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes. Do not let it boil.
Step 6
Add the crumbled bacon back to the skillet and stir to incorporate.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from the heat and allow the dressing to cool slightly before serving warm.
Step 8
Drizzle the dressing over your favorite salad or dish, and enjoy immediately!
