Ingredients
10
slices
bacon
or as many slices as you like
1
cup
water
Instructions
Preheat your air fryer to 370°F. Add 1 cup of water to the bottom of the air fryer basket to prevent smoking during cooking.
10 slices bacon,
1 cup water
Place slices of bacon in a single layer in the air fryer basket. They can be touching each other.
Air fry bacon for 9 minutes, flipping over halfway through the cooking time. Reduce cooking time to 7-8 minutes for more tender and less crispy bacon.
Using tongs, remove cooked bacon and place on a paper towel to absorb any remaining grease. Serve immediately.
Notes
Empty the grease after each batch. Wipe clean with a paper towel.
All air fryers cook differently, so check to ensure your bacon is not burning toward the end of the cooking time.
The cooking time will depend on the thickness of your bacon.
Store leftover bacon in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
