Recipe Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Before you start making air fryer bacon-wrapped asparagus, read through these recipe tips so you know what to expect and achieve tasty results!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Try to use asparagus spears that have a similar thickness so that they are done cooking at the same time. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- The cooking time will vary based on the thickness of the asparagus spears and the thickness of the bacon. Thicker asparagus spears will take longer to cook. Similarly, thick cut bacon will take a little longer until crispy. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- If the pieces of bacon are quite large, you can cut them in half lengthwise and only use 1\/2 slice of bacon per 3 asparagus spears. It’s up to you. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- If you think the bacon might unravel during cooking, you can secure it to the asparagus with a small toothpick. We’ve never had any issues though. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Be sure to watch the bacon towards the end of the cooking time because you don’t want it to burn.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Don’t overcrowd the air fryer as this would prevent the bacon and asparagus from cooking evenly. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- When cooking the bacon-wrapped asparagus in two batches, be sure to drain the bacon grease after the first batch to avoid smoke!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- It’s important to clean the air fryer<\/a> after making bacon while the grease is still in liquid form. This makes it easy to drain out of the air fryer tray – and it’s less you have to physically wipe up later. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n
