Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Place a wire rack over the lined baking sheet to allow air circulation under the bacon for even cooking.
Arrange the bacon slices in a single layer across the wire rack, ensuring they do not overlap.
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, sriracha, brown sugar, and black pepper until well combined.
Using a basting brush, generously coat one side of the bacon slices with the soyracha maple glaze.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven, flip the bacon slices using tongs, and brush the other side with the glaze.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and caramelized to your liking.
Remove the bacon from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes to allow the glaze to set.
Serve immediately and enjoy the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory flavors!
