Something magical happens when you use a combination of moist and dry heat to cook bacon. The Steam & Crisp function is simply perfect and you will love the results!
Place the rack in the low position and add ½ cup of water to the inner pot.
Place the bacon strips in a single layer on the rack. Close the lid and move the slider to the middle position. Select steam/crisp. Set the temperature to 375℉/190℃ and the time to 12 minutes.
Don't open the lid until the countdown has gone for 7 minutes or you will let out all the steam. After 7 minutes (the display will show 4 minutes left) you can open the lid and check on the bacon.
The bacon is fully cooked at this time and you can continue air frying until it reaches your desired texture. I like really crispy bacon and that takes the full 12 minutes, or a few minutes longer if I open the lid.
Place the cooked bacon on paper towels until ready to eat or use in your favorite recipes.
Place the rack in the low position. Lay the pieces of bacon in a single layer. Close the lid and select the air crisp (air-fry) function. Set the temperature to 360℉/180℃ and the time for 18 minutes.Start checking on the bacon after about 7 minutes and cook until it is as done as you like it.
