Ingredients

  • 12 ounces bacon (don't use thick-cut bacon)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400℉. Line a rimmed bacon sheet with foil or parchment paper.
  • Using your hands, twist each piece of bacon tightly and set it on the baking sheet. Snuggle the twists next to each other with no spacing.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the pan from the oven and turn the twists over. Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, until the pieces of twisted bacon are browned and crisp.
  • Move the cooked bacon twists to a paper towel-lined plate so that any excess oil can drain on them. Serve!

Notes

  • You can certainly make as many pieces of twisted bacon that you want.
