Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Bacon
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup and place a wire rack on top of it. This will allow the fat to drip off the bacon while it cooks.

Season the Bacon
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, black pepper, and maple syrup to create a glaze. Lay the slices of applewood smoked bacon on the wire rack in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap. Brush the glaze evenly over the bacon slices.
Cooking
- 3
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 towards the end to prevent burning.

Cool and Serve
Once cooked, remove the bacon from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes on the rack. This will help it crisp up even more. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
