Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a sided baking sheet with foil and place cooling rack into the pan. Lightly spray rack with nonstick cooking spray.
- Line bacon slices onto rack and bake 15-20 minutes, depending on the desired texture. Remove from oven, cool 2 minutes and serve warm.
Notes
Every brand of bacon is different (some are super thick and some are very thin) and every oven runs differently as well. If you notice that your bacon is super thin, you may want to start checking at 10 minutes. Of course, thick-cut bacon will take more baking time. If you buy a good quality thick cut bacon, it could take as long as 25-30 minutes on a rack. My best advice is to KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON YOUR BACON and determine yourself how much time is needed for your bacon of choice.
