Arrange the turkey bacon slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, black pepper, and olive oil to create the glaze.
Brush each turkey bacon slice generously with the maple glaze. Flip the slices and brush the other side as well.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven, flip the turkey bacon slices, and brush them with any remaining glaze.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the turkey bacon is crispy and caramelized.
Remove from the oven and let the turkey bacon cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before serving.
Serve the maple-glazed turkey bacon warm as part of breakfast or as a protein-rich snack.
