Ingredients
Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon (regular or thick cut)
Instructions
- Prepare the Air Fryer: Place bacon strips in the air fryer basket in a single layer. If needed, cut strips in half to fit properly without overlapping.
- Cooking Regular Cut Bacon: Set the air fryer temperature to 350 degrees F. Cook the bacon for 7 to 9 minutes, checking for desired crispiness.
- Cooking Thick Cut Bacon: Set the air fryer temperature to 350 degrees F. Cook the bacon for 10 to 12 minutes, adjusting time as needed until crispy.
- Drain and Serve: Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate to absorb excess grease. Discard any bacon drippings from the basket between batches.
Notes
- Cooking times may vary based on air fryer model and bacon thickness.
- For extra crispy bacon, increase cooking time in 1-minute increments, monitoring closely to avoid burning.
- Cutting bacon strips in half can help them fit better and cook more evenly.
- Discard grease carefully as it can be hot and messy.
- Regular cut bacon typically cooks faster than thick cut bacon.
