That’s right—oven-baked bacon is the ultimate hassle-free method. Here’s how to do it:
Ingredients & Tools
Bacon (any thickness—regular, thick-cut, or even turkey bacon)
Baking sheet (rimmed to catch grease)
Aluminum foil or parchment paper (for easy cleanup)
Wire rack (optional) – For extra crispiness
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper (optional: place a wire rack on top for crispier bacon).
2. Arrange the Bacon
Lay bacon strips in a single layer on the sheet (no overlapping!).
For extra flavor, sprinkle with black pepper or brown sugar before baking.
3. Bake to Perfection
Regular-cut bacon: 12-15 minutes
Thick-cut bacon: 15-20 minutes
Turkey bacon: 10-12 minutes
No flipping needed! Just bake until golden and crispy.
