Ingredients
- 1 pound Bacon thick sliced
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon maple sugar
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and place a cooling rack into a rimmed baking sheet.
- Place the bacon onto the cooling rack and bake for about 15 minutes or until the bacon is crispy but not overly browned.
- In a small bowl mix together the maple syrup, maple sugar, and black pepper. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes so the maple sugar is fully dissolved.

- Carefully spoon the glaze onto the bacon and spread it thinly over the bacon.
- Add the bacon back to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes or until the glaze is thick and the bacon is crispy.
