Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 3-7 slices bacon cut in half widthwise

Instructions
 

  • Arrange your bacon slices in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. For perfectly crispy bacon and to avoid overcrowding, you may need to cook in batches, especially with a smaller air fryer.
  • Set your air fryer to 320°F (160°C). Cook the bacon for about 9 minutes if it's thick-cut, or a little less for thinner slices. Keep an eye on it and adjust the cooking time as needed to reach your desired crispiness.
  • If you're cooking multiple batches, make sure to carefully drain any accumulated grease from the air fryer basket between rounds to prevent smoking.

Notes

Once your air fryer has cooled completely, take a damp paper towel and wipe away any splattered grease from the inside, especially around the heating element. This simple step helps maintain a smoke-free cooking experience for next time!
