Notes
Raw bacon can be used as well. Here are 3 ways to cook raw bacon:
Oven - line a baking dish with aluminum foil and place bacon on the pan next to each other. Cook at 400ºF for 12-17 minutes, or until bacon reaches desired crispiness.
Air fryer - Line bacon on an air fryer tray, air fry at 350ºF for 7-14 minutes, or until bacon reaches desired crispiness
Pan fry - sear bacon on a skillet on the stovetop. Flip to cook both sides until it reaches desired crispiness.
