To cook bacon in an air fryer, you can follow these steps:
-
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
-
Place the bacon strips in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cut the bacon strips in half to fit them properly.
-
Cook the bacon in the air fryer for about 8-10 minutes, flipping the bacon halfway through the cooking time. Cooking time may vary based on the thickness of the bacon and your preferred level of crispiness.
-
Check the bacon periodically to avoid overcooking. Once the bacon reaches your desired level of crispiness, remove it from the air fryer.
-
Let the cooked bacon strips rest on a paper towel-lined plate for a few minutes to absorb excess grease before serving.
Remember, air fryers can vary in temperature and cooking times, so it's always a good idea to monitor the cooking process, especially the first time you cook bacon in your specific air fryer. Enjoy your crispy bacon!
