Who doesn’t love bacon? The smell of it cooking, the crispy texture, the wonderful taste of it on a sandwich, or in a salad, or just on it’s own. Bacon, bacon, bacon. Let’s make some bacon in the oven.
Why in the oven? It doesn’t make a mess, you can make more at a time, and it always comes out perfect.

1 lb Sliced Bacon
Baking sheet
Aluminum Foil
Directions
- Line your baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Lay your bacon in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Place it in a cold oven. This is very important. Do not preheat oven.
- Once bacon is in the oven, turn the oven on to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Cook for 30-40 minutes.
- Not all ovens are created equally, so start peeking after 25 minutes. Remove it from the oven when the bacon has reached your desired doneness.
- Note - They say you don't need to flip bacon when you are cooking it in the oven, but I can't help myself. I usually flip it once, halfway through the cooking time.
