Main Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. For easier cleanup, line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack in the baking sheet (optional).
  • Twist each slice of bacon very tightly, then place it on the wire rack, if using. If you aren't using a rack, put them on the foil-lined baking sheet with the pieces touching so they don't untwist.
  • Place into the oven to bake for 20 minutes. Flip over and bake for another 20 minutes, or until crispy-soft and cooked through.
  • Remove from the oven and transfer to a paper towel to drain. Serve and enjoy.

Notes

Store any leftover twisted bacon in an airtight container for 3 days.
Twisting the bacon helps render the fat more evenly.
Using a wire rack can make for a crispier finish.
