Place on wire rack seam-side down.
Make the Glaze

Storage Notes
Fridge:
Store leftovers for 3 days. Reheat in oven or air fryer to restore crispiness.
Reheat:
Air fryer at 350°F for 5 minutes. Oven at 375°F for 8-10 minutes.
Freezer Friendly:
Freeze baked or unbaked for 2 months. Bake from frozen at 375°F for 20-25 minutes.
Pro Tip:
Use thin-cut bacon. Thick-cut won’t crisp up properly in the oven.
