With an appliance

  • Air fryer 25 min

    Replace step 2: Place the bacon in the basket at 190 degrees for 7 minutes, turning it once after 4 minutes; the cooking time is almost the same as pan-frying, but the fat drains to the bottom, the bacon is evenly crispy, and you don't have to stand there avoiding oil splattering.
