Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 slices turkey bacon
- 3 tablespoons sugar-free maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 as needed olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
In a small bowl, combine the sugar-free maple syrup, smoked paprika, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir well to make a smooth glaze.
Lightly spray the parchment paper or foil on the baking sheet with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.
Lay the turkey bacon slices out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they do not overlap.
Use a pastry brush to apply the maple glaze evenly over each piece of turkey bacon, coating one side generously.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 7 minutes.
Remove the tray from the oven, flip the turkey bacon slices over with tongs or a spatula, and brush the other side with more maple glaze.
Return the tray to the oven and bake for an additional 7 to 8 minutes, or until the turkey bacon reaches your desired crispness.
Remove the turkey bacon from the oven and allow it to cool for a couple of minutes on the baking sheet before serving.
