If you thought bacon couldn’t get better, I assure you, it can. The simple addition of peppery sweetness elevates this humble breakfast staple to the next level. Enjoy the bacon on breakfast sandwiches, with pancakes, on salads, or even sprinkled onto desserts.
On a foil-lined sheet pan, lay bacon into a single layer. Season with fresh cracked black pepper and flip. Drizzle the other side with honey and season with more fresh pepper. Place on the center rack of a cold oven, then preheat to 350 degrees.
Depending on the thickness of your bacon and desired crispiness, cook for 20-35 minutes. I suggest checking the doneness every 10-15 minutes, until it is crisp enough for your liking.
