Lay the bacon strips flat on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each strip lightly with maple syrup, then sprinkle the espresso seasoning mixture evenly over the bacon, ensuring all pieces are coated.
Cooking
- 4
Bake the Bacon
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and caramelized. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning, as the sugar can caramelize quickly.

Cool and Serve
Once the bacon is cooked to your liking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Serve warm as a savory snack or as a topping for salads and sandwiches.
