Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

  2. 2

    Season the Bacon

    In a bowl, mix the brown sugar, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Lay the applewood smoked bacon strips on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle the sugar mixture over the top.

  3. 3

    Drizzle Maple Syrup

    Drizzle maple syrup evenly over the bacon strips for added sweetness.

  4. 4

    Bake the Bacon

    Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and caramelized. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.

    Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious applewood smoked bacon!
