Ingredients  

  • 1 pound bacon sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
  • While the air fryer is preheating, arrange the bacon slices in a single layer in the basket. Cook in batches if needed, depending on the size of your air fryer.
  • Place the basket into the air fryer and cook the bacon for 8 to 10 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of crispiness.
  • Halfway through cooking, flip the bacon slices using tongs to ensure even cooking on both sides.
  • Once cooked, use tongs to carefully transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate to absorb any excess grease.
  • Allow the bacon to cool for a minute or two before serving to avoid burns.

Notes

Nutrition values are an estimate, based on about 4 cooked rashers per serving. The cooking time varies with the thickness of the bacon and how crispy you like it, so adjust accordingly and check the bacon periodically to prevent burning. Clean the air fryer basket thoroughly after cooking to remove any grease residue.
