Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. F.
  2. Line large baking sheet with foil. 
  3. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, chile powder, and maple sugar to form a paste.
  4. Arrange the bacon strips in a single layer on the foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the pan and carefully pour off any excess grease.
  5. Spoon about a teaspoon of mixture over each strip of bacon. 
  6. Bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. I recommend flipping the bacon and sprinkling with additional mixture every 10 minutes. 
  7. The bacon is done when the brown sugar is melted and the bacon is a deep brown color. 
  8. Transfer the bacon to a clean parchment paper to cool. The bacon will crisp as it cools.

Notes

  • Thick cut: Total bake time is about 30-35 minutes
  • Thin cut: Total bake time about 20-25 minutes.
