Cook the bacon in the skillet just enough that it is almost done. Drain and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Set it aside.
1 pound bacon
Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a 9 x 14 rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. You can spray with cooking spray instead, but the paper makes it easier to remove once cooked.
Roll out the crescent roll dough and pinch seams to make a large, single sheet of pastry dough. You may have to stretch the dough to make it reach close to the edges of the pan.
1 package crescent rolls
Prick the dough with a fork all over the top to prevent bubbling up when baked.
Drizzle half of the maple syrup over the top of the dough, then sprinkle about half of the brown sugar on top of that.
3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup maple syrup
Add the chopped bacon and spread evenly over the dough.
1 pound bacon
Drizzle the remaining maple syrup on top of the bacon, and top it off with the remaining brown sugar.
Bake for about 25 minutes, until bacon is crispy and caramelized.
Remove from the oven and allow the pan to cool for 10 minutes before cutting into bite size pieces. Enjoy!

When you cook your bacon, you're looking for a dark pink color, and not quite crispy. It will get crispy in the oven.
