Instructions
I don't ever preheat my air fryer, but you can if you want to.Place the bacon in the air fryer basket in a single layer, not overlapping. Cut the strips in half if needed to fit.
Prevent grease splatter and smoking (optional):If you have a regular air fryer with a basket, place a little water in the chamber underneath the basket. If you have an air fryer toaster oven, use a drip tray or a piece of foil under the crisper tray.
Air fry at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes (for extra crispy bacon, air fry an additional 1-2 minutes. Alternatively, for softer bacon air fry for 7 minutes.)
