Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the bacon.
- 2
Prepare the Baking Sheet
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. This will allow the fat to drip off the bacon as it cooks.
Bacon Preparation

Mix the Coating
In a mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, maple syrup, black pepper, and ground cinnamon. Stir until well mixed to create a sticky glaze.
- 4
Coat the Bacon
Take each strip of bacon and generously coat it with the brown sugar mixture, making sure to cover both sides. Place the coated bacon strips on the wire rack in a single layer.
Baking

Bake the Bacon
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and caramelized. Keep an eye on it towards the end to prevent burning.
- 6
Cool the Bacon
Once done, remove the bacon from the oven and let it cool on the wire rack for about 10 minutes. It will harden as it cools.
