Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 1 pound bacon

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 on the air fryer basket. You may need to cook the bacon in batches 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 onto a paper towel lined plate to absorb any excess grease.
  • Allow the bacon to cool for a minute or two before serving to avoid any burns.
