MAKES 36 pieces PREP 2 mins COOK 410 mins EASY

6 rashers streaky bacon, or

3 rashers back bacon

1 Lay the bacon in a single layer in the base of an air fryer – be sure the rashers aren’t overlapping. The size of the basket will determine how many you can cook at one time.

2 Set the air fryer to 200C and cook streaky bacon for around 6-10 mins – just-cooked will take 6 mins, but crispier bacon will take 9-10 mins. Cook back bacon rashers for 4-8 mins, according to your preference. If cooking in batches, remember that the second batch will usually be quicker as the air fryer has already heated up.

3 Remove using tongs and drain on kitchen paper before serving as-is or in a sandwich.
