Step 1
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray. Heat a skillet over high heat. Arrange the bacon in a single layer in the skillet and fry until browned and the fat has rendered, 4–5 minutes. Using a cookie cutter or round mold, cut a 5 cm circle from each slice of bread. Place the bread circles in the bottom of each cup of the muffin pan.
