Crispy Air Fryer Bacon

Who doesn’t love bacon? No weekend breakfast is complete without a towering plate of bacon… and the mess that ensues. Next weekend, give air fryer bacon a try! It’s my go-to method for cooking crispy bacon without any oil splatters. Once you cook bacon in the air fryer you will never go back to any other method! So easy, extra crispy, hassle free, and hands down delicious. Be sure to try my Bacon Crumbles and Brown Sugar Bacon, too! Skip the stovetop and try air fryer bacon instead!
