1 Preheat the oven to 425ºF (218ºC). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper, and
place an oven-safe baking rack on top of the parchment paper.
2 Place the bacon slices on the baking rack, keeping them evenly spaced with no
overlapping.
3 Add the brown sugar and black pepper to a small bowl. Stir to combine.
4 Sprinkle ⅔ of the brown sugar and pepper mixture carefully on top of the bacon
slices.
5 Place in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.
6 Use a fork to flip the bacon slices over, then gently sprinkle on the remaining
brown sugar and black pepper.
7 Return to the oven to cook for 5-7 minutes, or until crisp enough for your
liking.
8 Remove from the oven and allow the bacon slices to cool on the baking rack for
4-5 minutes.
9 Serve and enjoy!
