Ingredients
Scale
- 18 stalks fresh Asparagus
- 9 slices uncured bacon
Instructions
- Trim the woody ends of the asparagus.
- Cut the bacon slices lengthwise to make narrower strips. Wrap each bacon strip tightly around an asparagus stalk.
- Place the wrapped asparagus seam side down in the air fryer basket. Air fry to 370 F for 10-15 minutes or until the bacon is cooked to your liking.
Notes
- You can make as many as you like if you keep the ratio of 2 asparagus stalks for each slice of bacon. You can also make a bandle with one bacon slice.
- Use thinly sliced bacon. The thinner the bacon pieces are, the faster they’ll cook, getting crispy without overcooking the asparagus.
- Bring the bacon to room temperature, and the asparagus keep in the fridge before wrapping them.; This will help with making sure they cook correctly without over-cooking or undercooking one of them.
- Use a toothpick to secure the wrapped bacon if needed.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days and reheat in the air fryer.
