Instructions
- First, spray air fryer basket lightly with nonstick spray.
- Chop off the woody ends of the asparagus.
- Then, slice each piece of bacon in half lengthwise (the long way). See photo above for reference.
- Carefully wrap each asparagus tightly with slice of bacon. Place in air fryer basket.
- Continue for each asparagus spear.
- Then, preheat air fryer to 390 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Cook for 7 to 8 minutes or until bacon is crispy and asparagus is cooked through.
- Finally, carefully remove from air fryer and serve.
Notes
- Use room temperature bacon for best results. Cold bacon does not bend and wrap as easily.
- Slice bacon lengthwise (to make 2 long pieces).
- Wrap bacon tightly around asparagus so it does not come undone while air frying.
- If using an air fryer sheet instead of basket, remove excess bacon grease before serving.
- Each air fryer is different. I use the Ninja Foodi Air Fryer and it is VERY strong!
- Air frying time may take as long as 12 minutes depending on size of asparagus and strength of air fryer.
- This recipe does not reheat well. I suggest making only how much you are going to eat that day.
- If needed, store in fridge and air fry on 390 degrees Fahnrenheit for 2 to 3 minutes to reheat.
- Use sugar free bacon for Keto and Whole30.
