– Line 5 bacon strips in a single layer in the air fryer basket. The slices will be slightly longer than the basket, so just fold the edges upward a bit.–
– Cook bacon at 350 degrees F for about 8 to 10 minutes or until desired crispness. Cook thick cut bacon for 11 to 13 minutes.– If undercooked, continue cooking in 2 minute increments.
– Remove cooked bacon and let drain on a paper towel. Pour rendered bacon grease from the bottom of the air fryer basket to a separate container for later use or discard in the trash can (not the sink) once it has cooled off.
