Ingredients

4 oz Prosciutto

Instructions

Place the prosciutto in a single layer (2-3 slices), leaving space between each slice. If possible, place a fitted wire rack on top of the prosciutto to keep it in place.
Air fry at 350°F for 4-5 minutes, carefully flipping halfway through. Keep an eye on the prosciutto because it can easily burn. (Repeat to cook remaining slices if desired)
Transfer the crispy prosciutto to a plate and allow it to cool. The prosciutto will get crispier as it cools. Enjoy!

Notes

Tips To Making The Best Crispy Proscuitto

- Because of the lightweight and thin texture of the prosciutto, it easily moves around in the air fryer. If you have a small wire rack, place it on top of the prosciutto to keep it in place. Some air fryers come with a small wire rack. If you don't have one, check the prosciutto frequently (every 30 seconds) and use tongs to flatten it out.

- Do not overcook the prosciutto. It only needs 2-3 minutes per side to create the perfect, golden, crispy prosciutto. Anything more and you risk burning the prosciutto.

- Do not overcrowd the air fryer. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you should be able to place 2-3 pieces of prosciutto flat inside. Do not layer the prosciutto on top of another and be sure to leave space between each piece. This helps ensure the slices get nice and crispy.
