Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Cook Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels, then crumble and set aside.
Prepare Sauce
In a bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic powder, and pepper until smooth.
Assemble Dish
Place drained green beans in the prepared baking dish. Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the top and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the crumbled bacon.
Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and slightly thickened.
Serve warm — these beans are sweet, savory, and irresistibly rich!
