Oven-baked bacon lacquered with Chipotle Maple until crisp, sticky and smoky. Dangerous to have in the house.
Serves: 4 | Prep: 5 min | Cook: 25 min
Ingredients
- 12 rashers thick-cut streaky bacon
- 3 tbsp The Flavorsmith Chipotle Maple
- Cracked black pepper
Method
- Heat the oven to 200°C. Set a wire rack over a tray lined with foil.
- Lay the bacon on the rack in a single layer. Bake 12 minutes.
- Brush the bacon with Chipotle Maple and add a crack of pepper. Bake 5 minutes.
- Turn, brush the other side and bake another 5–8 minutes, until deep amber and glossy.
- Cool on the rack for 5 minutes — it crisps as it cools.
Chef's tip: The foil-lined tray catches the drips and saves you scrubbing burnt sugar.
