Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
- Place the bacon slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Air fry the bacon for 5 minutes, or longer if you prefer it crispier. For chewy bacon, remove it when the center is still slightly flexible. For extra-crispy bacon, cook until the strips feel firm when lifted with tongs and the edges are deep golden brown.
- Remove the bacon from the air fryer basket and serve immediately.
