Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)
02
Step
0 mins
Arrange bacon slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they don't overlap. (2 minutes)
03
Step
0 mins
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. (20 minutes)
04
Step
20 mins
Flip the bacon slices and continue baking until they reach your desired level of crispness, approximately 10 more minutes. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning. (10 minutes)
For extra crispy bacon, place a wire rack on the baking sheet before adding the bacon.
Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the bacon and your oven. Adjust accordingly.
Save the rendered bacon fat! It's liquid gold for adding flavor to roasted vegetables, eggs, or even cornbread.

May 22, 2025I accidentally overcooked my bacon a little, but it still tasted great. Next time, I'll watch it more closely.
