Equipment
- Cosori dual blaze air fryer
- kitchen tongs
Ingredients
- 6 Slices bacon
Instructions
- Remove bacon from package.
- Lay bacon strips in a single layer in the basket. A slight overlap is ok.
Regular cut bacon (streaky bacon)
- Set temperature to 400°F (200°C) and cook for 8-10 minutes, checking and flipping the bacon halfway through. Cooking time may vary depending on your air fryer and thickness of the bacon. Bacon should be slightly crispy but not burnt.
- Remove from air fryer and transfer to a paper towel lined plate to remove excess grease.
Thick cut bacon
- Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 10 to 12 mins.
Notes
- You do not need to preheat the air fryer
It’s ok if the bacon overlaps because bacon shrinks as it cooks. - While you may not need to flip the bacon, I recommend you do because it helps it cook more evenly.
- Add more time as needed to get to the desired crispness you want.
- Alternatively leave the cooked bacon in the air fryer. The residual heat will help crisp it some more as it cools.
