Air Fryer Bacon Crispy Easy Perfect Food

CRISPY AIR FRYER BACON

Steps:

• Preheat air fryer to 360°F.
• Once preheated, place a small amount of water in the bottom of the air fryer.
• Place bacon slices in the air fryer in a single layer. (Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cut them in half).
• Cook 8-11 minutes or until crisp. Remove bacon and place on a paper towel lined plate.
• Clean the bottom of the air fryer if you will be cooking more batches. Repeat with remaining slices.
• Once all of the bacon is cooked, add it all back into the air fryer and cook 1 minute to heat through and serve all at once.

AIR FRYER BACON RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 370 degrees F (187 degrees C).
• Optional step: Add a little bit of water to the air fryer drip tray, to prevent smoking. Use just enough to cover the bottom of the tray below the grate; this was 1/2 cup in my air fryer.
• Arrange the bacon in a single layer in the air fryer rack or basket, overlapping slightly. (Bacon in the air fryer will shrink as it cooks.) Depending on the size and shape of your air fryer, it may help to cut the bacon pieces in half.
• Cook for 6 minutes. Open the air fryer and spread out the bacon pieces so that they aren't overlapping. Cook for 1-4 more minutes for regular bacon, or 3-5 more minutes for thick cut bacon, or until done to your liking.

AIR FRYER BACON

Steps:

• Lay the bacon in a single layer in the base of an air fryer - be sure the layers aren't overlapping. The size of the air fryer basket will determine how many rashers you can cook at one time.
• Set the air fryer to 200C and cook streaky bacon rashers for 6-10 mins - just-cooked bacon will take 6 mins, but crispier bacon will take 9-10 mins. Cook back bacon rashers for 4-8 mins, depending on your preference. If you are cooking in batches, remember that the second batch will usually be quicker as the air fryer has heated up.
• Remove the bacon using tongs and put on kitchen paper to drain before serving.
