1 tablespoon (optional for a sweet glaze)

Instructions

  3. Cook the bacon for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the bacon.
  4. For a touch of sweetness, drizzle maple syrup over the bacon during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
