Questions
What temperature should I air fry bacon at?
350°F (175°C) for regular cut, for 8 to 10 minutes. Pick another cut in the calculator and the heat and time follow it.
Do I need to turn bacon?
No turning needed: the hot air reaches every side. Just leave a little room around each piece.
How do I check bacon for doneness?
When it is golden at the edges and tender inside. Start checking at the low end of the time.
How much can I cook at once?
One layer, with a little room between the pieces, so the hot air reaches them all. Piled higher, food steams instead of crisping; the calculator splits a bigger amount into batches.
Do I need to preheat the air fryer?
These times assume a preheated air fryer, which takes about 3 to 5 minutes. From cold, choose "No, from cold" and 3 minutes are added.
