Ingredients
- 1 pound asparagus (about 16 spears)
- 8 lices Bacon
Instructions
- Break or cut off the woodsy ends of asparagus. They have a natural break if you snap them at the ends.
- Cut or slice bacon in half so you have 16 pieces.
- Starting in the middle of the asparagus, wrap the bacon around the asparagus towards the bottom allowing the top and bottom to peak out.
- Place asparagus in air fryer tray leaving a little space between the pieces and cook on 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes or until bacon is starting to get crispy and asparagus is tender.

Notes
- Choose thick cut asparagus: For this recipe, thicker stalks of asparagus work best. If you can only find thin stalks, you can make asparagus bundles. Wrap bacon around 3-4 asparagus spears (depending on how big they are) and air fry until bacon is cooked through and asparagus are tender.
- Use thin strips of bacon. A standard cut bacon is the best option for bacon wrapped asparagus in the air fryer. Thick cut bacon won't cook through and get crispy before the asparagus spears burn.
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer. If your air fryer isn't big enough for each asparagus spear to have a little space around it, you may want to air fry these in batches for best crispy results.
- Check on the asparagus. Every air fryer cooks slightly differently. Keep an eye on your asparagus to make sure everything is cooking to your liking.
- Make it Vegetarian: While the bacon is the star of the show in this recipe, you could absolutely leave it out if you wanted this recipe to be vegan or vegetarian. Toss the asparagus in a bit of olive oil with salt and pepper, air fry it for the same amount of time and you'll still have a delicious result.
