Ingredients

4 rashers streaky bacon, rind removed
1/2 tbsp maple syrup
2 slices bread, lightly buttered
1 tbsp mayonnaise
2 leaves little gem lettuce, shredded
1 small tomato, sliced

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°c/400°F/Gas 6/Fan 180°.
Put a wire cooling rack on a baking sheet and sit the bacon on the rack. Roast for 12-13 minutes, until the bacon is starting to crisp.
Carefully brush both sides of the bacon rashers with the maple syrup and roast for a further 2 minutes.
Brush once more and roast for a final 2-3 minutes, watching carefully.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. If making for a lunchbox, refrigerate the bacon until thoroughly chilled before making the sandwich.
Spread one of the slices of bread with mayonnaise and scatter over the lettuce. Sit the tomato and bacon on top then sandwich with the second slice of bread.
Cut in half diagonally and serve, or wrap for the lunchbox.
