Mini Bacon Cups
9
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
10
Turn a mini muffin pan upside-down and lightly coat the bottom with nonstick pan spray. Crisscross 3 pieces of bacon over each upturned cup, and then place another mini muffin pan on top so that the bacon pieces are compressed between the two pans.

Place the pans on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the bacon cups are crisp and browned, about ⏱️ 20 minutes.
12
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and set aside to cool completely. Lift off the top pan. Carefully remove the bacon cups from the bottom pan and place them on a paper-towel-lined baking sheet to drain, wrong side up.

To Serve
