Baked Bacon

It's almost the weekend which means there will hopefully be time to make a yummy breakfast, with bacon! Bacon is delicious but frying it can be messy and painful when it sends grease flying out of the pan and on to your arms. I decided to look in to baking bacon to save myself from the bacon popping and it has become my favorite type of bacon. It turns out firm and crunchy without crumbling and burnt like fried crispy bacon. Yet it's soft without being chewy like fried chewy bacon. It's also really easy to do and allows you to work on the rest of the meal.

Spread out bacon onto a foil boat on a baking sheet on layer thick. Place bacon into cold oven and turn on the oven to 400. Bake for 20-25 minutes starting from the time you begin heating the oven. The bacon should be crisp when done. Move on to paper towel plate to remove excess grease and enjoy. Throw away foil and grease once cooled. The pan may have to be lightly washed as well.

Notes:
When looking up how to bake bacon I found a site saying to use parchment paper. You can use it but it will be a lot messier because it seeps through and it's not easy to contain the grease.
