Ingredients
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons chile powder
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 1/2 pounds thick cut bacon (20 slices)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. F.
- Line large baking sheet with foil.
- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, chile powder, and maple sugar to form a paste.
- 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.
- Spoon about a teaspoon of mixture over each strip of bacon.
- Bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. I recommend flipping the bacon and sprinkling with additional mixture every 10 minutes.
- The bacon is done when the brown sugar is melted and the bacon is a deep brown color.
- Transfer the bacon to a clean parchment paper to cool. The bacon will crisp as it cools.
