Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 slices Bacon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C).
Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Place a wire rack on top of the prepared baking sheet. This allows the bacon to cook evenly and become crispier as the fat drips away.
Arrange the bacon slices in a single layer on the wire rack. Make sure the slices do not overlap to ensure even cooking.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon reaches your desired level of crispiness. Keep in mind that thickness can vary, so start checking around the 15-minute mark.
Remove the bacon from the oven and allow it to cool slightly on the rack. This will also help the bacon to crisp up further.
Transfer the bacon slices to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess grease before serving.
