drizzled bacon sm

I hate frying bacon, mostly because of the clean up. Also when I make breakfast I have a lot of pans going at one time, so cooking bacon in the oven is an easy alternative. I thought drizzling the bacon with syrup would give it a little kick, and it sure did – it made bacon even better, if that’s possible…

ingredients:
1 pound of bacon (1 slab)
1/3 cup of maple syrup (approx)

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

Line the bottom of sheet pan with foil. On top of that, place a wire rack.

twist it sm

Take your bacon by the piece and twist it, laying it on the rack. I like to do this because I think it crisps evenly without having to turn it (I hate taking the time to turn things – lazy) and it picks up the syrup evenly.

After you’ve twisted all your bacon pieces, drizzle them with a touch of maple syrup.

Bake for 20 minutes, then serve.

Goes GREAT with French Toast!
