Recipe Tip
How to cook bacon in the oven:
This recipe calls for cooked bacon. I always make my bacon in the oven because it’s so easy to do, and there is very little clean-up or mess involved. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Lay the strips of bacon on the foil. Bake until the bacon is browned and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes. Time in the oven will depend on how thick your bacon is. Let the bacon cool and drain on a paper towel lined plate, and then chop it into smaller pieces.
About Maple Syrup:
I ate the reduced-calorie syrup for a zillion years before I realized that it has hardly any actual maple in it at all. So now it’s 100% pure maple syrup all the way in our house. You only need a little bit- it has so much more flavor than the fake stuff. Get into it!
What I Love About This Recipe:
- These maple bacon waffles have bacon inside and out.
- They turn out perfectly crispy, like a good waffle should.
- I freeze leftovers to be heated up for breakfast during the week.
