Air Fryer Bacon (Always Perfectly Crispy)
Description
The recipe calls for one pound of bacon placed flat inside an air fryer basket, ensuring slices do not overlap to promote even cooking. Cooking at 390°F for four minutes, then flipping the bacon strips and cooking four more minutes, produces crispy bacon with rendered fat and a satisfying crunch. The air fryer circulates hot air rapidly, cooking bacon to crispness without the need for added oils or stovetop supervision.
This method saves cleanup and avoids splatter associated with pan-frying. Bacon is best served immediately to preserve its crisp texture.

- 1 lb Bacon
Instructions
