Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces bacon any thickness

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to catch the grease and ensure easy cleanup.
  • Arrange the bacon slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. There's no need to wait for the oven to preheat; just place the bacon in as soon as it's ready.
  • Bake the bacon for 20 to 25 minutes, adjusting the time based on the thickness of the bacon and your desired doneness—longer for thicker slices or crispier results.
  • Remove the bacon from the oven and transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess grease.
  • Carefully pour the rendered grease into a ramekin or jar for storage and future use in cooking.
