How to Cook Bacon in the Oven
Report
Oven cooked bacon is our favorite method for cooking tasty and crispy bacon, and you won't ever go back to using a skillet after trying it this way! There's one ingredient and basically no clean-up. Easy peasy.

Ingredients
- 12 trips Bacon see note
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F and move the rack to the middle position. Line a large baking sheet with tin foil for easier clean-up.
- Spread the bacon out on the baking sheet (do not overlap). Most bacon will take 15-20 minutes to cook. If you have thicker bacon and like it very crispy, it may take up to 25 minutes. For very thin bacon, check after 10 minutes.
- Remove the bacon to a paper towel lined plate and enjoy.
Notes
- Cooking time will vary depending on how thick the bacon is and how hot your oven is (ovens vary and often aren't accurate), so I recommend keeping an eye on the bacon the first couple times you try this method.
- If you need to do a larger quantity than the 12 strips I suggest, you may be able to fit more than 12 strips on the baking sheet, or you can definitely do two baking sheets at once (one rack closer to the top of the oven and one rack closer to the bottom).
