Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Arrange the turkey bacon slices on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping for even cooking.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the sugar-free maple syrup and butter. Stir constantly until the butter is fully melted and the mixture is well combined.
Add the cinnamon, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the maple-butter mixture, stirring until all spices are evenly distributed.
Using a pastry brush, lightly glaze the top side of each turkey bacon slice with the prepared maple mixture.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and flip each slice of turkey bacon.
Brush the other side of the turkey bacon with the remaining glaze.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the turkey bacon reaches your desired level of crispiness.
Remove the turkey bacon from the oven and allow it to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
Serve your maple-glazed turkey bacon warm as a sweet and savory addition to breakfast or brunch.
