Air Fryer Bacon 🥓

If you own an Air Fryer this is the easiest way to make crispy bacon. Ready in about 12 minutes without the mess!

It seems like I make bacon at least once a week so making it in my Air Fryer was a real time saver. In roughly 10 to 12 minutes you have crisp delicious bacon to eat or use for other recipes.

As you can imagine there are many different makes and models of air fryers out there. Some use baskets while others, like the Instant Pot Vortex Plus Air Fryer Oven uses baking sheets. Some pressure cookers even have air fryer lids.

The purpose of this recipe is to show you how easy and quick it is to make bacon in an Air Fryer. Depending on the model you have, you will need to adapt accordingly, meaning the use of baskets vs. baking sheets, etc.

The cook time listed on the recipe card assumes a regular cut of bacon. You adjust the cooking time based on how crispy you want your bacon. Less crispy cooks in approximately 8 minutes but if you want yours super crispy I recommend 12 minutes or so. If you are using a thicker cut of bacon you may have to add another minute or two.
