Sure! Here’s a simple recipe for air fryer turkey bacon:
Ingredients:
- Turkey bacon slices
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Preheating is important to ensure even cooking and crispy results.
- While the air fryer is preheating, line the basket or tray with a piece of aluminum foil or parchment paper. This will help prevent the bacon from sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Place the turkey bacon slices in a single layer on the lined basket or tray. Make sure they are not overlapping to allow for even cooking.
- Insert the basket or tray into the preheated air fryer and set the cooking time. Turkey bacon usually takes about 6-8 minutes to cook in the air fryer, but the exact time may vary depending on the thickness of the slices and the desired crispiness.
- Cook the turkey bacon at 400°F (200°C) for the initial cooking time. You can flip the bacon halfway through the cooking process to ensure both sides are evenly cooked and crispy. Keep an eye on the bacon towards the end of the cooking time to prevent it from burning.
- Once the turkey bacon reaches your desired level of crispiness, carefully remove it from the air fryer using tongs or a spatula. Place the cooked bacon on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess grease.
- Allow the turkey bacon to cool for a minute or two before serving. Serve it as a standalone snack, use it in sandwiches, salads, or any other recipe that calls for bacon.
Note: Cooking times may vary depending on your specific air fryer model and personal preferences. It’s always a good idea to check the bacon periodically during cooking to ensure it doesn’t overcook or burn. Adjust the cooking time as needed to achieve the desired level of crispiness.
