Ingredients
Scale
1 pound bacon
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange the bacon strips on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, brown sugar, and black pepper.
Brush the maple syrup mixture evenly over the bacon strips.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and caramelized.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack.
Once cool enough to handle, twist each bacon strip into a spiral or twist shape.
Notes
For an extra kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the maple glaze.
Watch the bacon closely during baking to prevent burning.
