Introduction

Bacon is a breakfast staple, but it can be tricky to cook. You could fry it in a pan and risk burning the edges or undercooking the middle. Or you could bake it in the oven, which can be time-consuming and potentially ruin your bacon by leaving it on too long. But there’s a third option: cooking bacon in muffin tins or other small containers! It’s easy, convenient, and allows for even cooking without any risk of burning. In this post I’ll show you how to make your own delicious bacon at home with none of these downsides.

Cooking bacon in the oven is a delicious way to prepare this breakfast favorite.

Bacon is a popular breakfast food that can be cooked in the oven at 375 degrees. In this method, bacon is placed on a baking sheet or muffin tins and then cooked until it’s crispy.

This method is simple and convenient because you don’t have to stand over the stovetop watching the bacon cook; instead, you can do something else while your breakfast cooks itself!

Prepare your bacon.

First, you’ll want to prepare your bacon for the oven. This can be done by placing it on a baking sheet (with or without parchment paper) and laying out each piece in a single layer. The goal is to get as much space between pieces so they don’t overlap while they cook. If you don’t have any parchment paper handy, just make sure there’s enough room between each slice so that air can circulate around them while they cook–this will help keep them from getting soggy and soft instead of crispy!

Once your bacon is prepared and ready for cooking, preheat your oven according to its instructions (usually 350-400 degrees Fahrenheit). Then place it into the oven for however long it takes based on how crispy/chewy/etc., you’d like yours cooked:

• Extra Crispy: 15 minutes (or less)
• Crispier: 20 minutes (or less) * Medium-Crispy: 25 minutes (or less).

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. If you don’t have a baking sheet, use a muffin tin instead. This will help keep the bacon flat and prevent it from curling up as it cooks.

If you’re using an oven that doesn’t have an automatic shutoff function (like mine), be sure to set a timer so that you don’t forget about your bacon!

Place the bacon slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet or into a muffin tin.

• Place the bacon slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet or into a muffin tin.
• Make sure that they’re not overlapping, and that they extend to the top of your baking sheet so that all sides get cooked evenly.

Bake for 15 minutes, then flip the slices and bake for another 15 minutes.

Bake for 15 minutes, then flip the slices and bake for another 15 minutes. Don’t bake too long or the bacon will get too crispy and hard to chew. If you don’t want your bacon to be as crispy, keep it in the oven at 400 degrees F until it’s golden brown on both sides but still pliable enough to bend without breaking (about 30-35 minutes).

Cooked this way, it’s easy and convenient without sacrificing flavor or crispiness!

You can cook bacon in the oven, and it’s easy to do. The process takes about 15 minutes total and results in a crispy, delicious breakfast treat that’s sure to please everyone at your table!

Baking bacon allows you to avoid the mess of frying it on the stovetop or in your oven. It also gives you more control over how crispy or chewy each piece turns out; if one slice is done before another, simply move it around so both sides get equal exposure to heat (and don’t worry about turning off your broiler once they’re ready).

Bacon is an excellent choice for breakfast because it’s high in protein and iron–two nutrients many people don’t get enough of during their day-to-day lives. Pairing this meat with eggs or toast makes for an easy morning meal; try serving up some hash browns along with scrambled eggs topped with cheese sauce for extra flavor!

Conclusion

Cooking bacon in the oven is an easy way to prepare this breakfast favorite. It doesn’t take long at all, and you don’t have to stand over a hot stove flipping slices of bacon every few minutes! If you want to make sure your bacon comes out crispy every time, follow these tips: preheat your oven to 375 degrees before placing the strips on parchment paper-lined baking sheets or muffin tins; bake them for 15 minutes before flipping them over so both sides can cook evenly; then put them back in for another 15 minutes (or until done). Once cooked, serve immediately with eggs or use as part of a sandwich filling like we did here today!
