Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound bacon
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400 F for about 3 minutes.
- While the air fryer is preheating, arrange the bacon slices in a single layer on the air fryer basket.
- Place the basket into the air fryer and cook the bacon for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Halfway through cooking, you'll want to turn the bacon over. Using tongs, flip the bacon slices to ensure even cooking on both sides.
- Once cooked or has reached your desired level of crispiness., 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.
