How to Make Bacon With Brown Sugar And Cardamom
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds.
- Line two rimmed baking sheets with foil.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and cardamom.
- Arrange bacon slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Ensure bacon isn't overlapping.
- Evenly sprinkle the brown sugar and cardamom mixture over the bacon.
- Place one baking sheet on the upper rack and the other on the lower rack.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, then switch the positions of the baking sheets (top to bottom, front to back).
- Continue baking until the bacon is dark brown and crispy, about 10-15 minutes more. Watch closely to avoid burning.
- Carefully remove bacon from baking sheets using tongs and place on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess grease.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet and savory perfection!
