Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Spray the parchment paper or foil lightly with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.
Lay the turkey bacon slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they donβt overlap.
In a small bowl, mix the freshly ground black pepper and brown sugar together.
Sprinkle the pepper and brown sugar mixture evenly over the turkey bacon slices, ensuring each strip has a light coating.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, carefully flip each slice of turkey bacon using tongs or a spatula, and bake for another 5 minutes or until the edges are crispy and the bacon is cooked through.
Remove the tray from the oven and transfer the turkey bacon slices to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess grease.
Serve immediately as part of your breakfast, in a sandwich, or enjoy on its own as a snack!
