Method
Preparation
- 1
Choose Your Bacon
Select high-quality bacon from your local butcher or grocery store. Look for bacon that has a good balance of meat and fat.

Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for baking the bacon. This temperature helps achieve crispy bacon.
Cooking
- 3
Prepare the Baking Sheet
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. This will help with easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
- 4
Arrange the Bacon
Lay the bacon strips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring that the strips do not overlap.
- 5
Seasoning (Optional)
If desired, sprinkle black pepper, brown sugar, or drizzle maple syrup over the bacon for added flavor.
- 6
Bake the Bacon
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and golden brown. Check halfway through, and flip the bacon if desired.

Drain and Serve
Once cooked, remove the bacon from the oven and transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Serve warm.
