For bacon roses:
Roll up strips of bacon and place them into the air fryer basket. Air fry for 8 minutes at 350F, flipping once halfway through, and voila! Beautiful, crispy, delicious rosettes.
Lying strips flat only allows you to fit 3-4 slices in a batch. You don’t want to have them overlap, so cooking them in small batches is critical to a crispy result.
Dry your bacon before cooking it for extra crispiness.
