Bacon in the Air Fryer is truly a game-changer. Never has any food been changed up so much by a simple change in cooking method. The bacon is crispy and delicious every single time.

So, racking my brain for even more ways to elevate it, I remember this Air Fryer Apple Crack I made several moons ago. As a result, this recipe for Air Fryer KETO Maple Bacon Crack was born.

This is a great option if you have been looking for GREAT snack options while following a Low-Carb or KETO Friendly Program!

How To Make Air Fryer KETO Maple Bacon Crack

Dough For Bacon Crack

Cook your bacon first. See note in the recipe card for an optional add-in—Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees F air fryer setting. While the air fryer is preheating, microwave the mozzarella and cream cheese in a medium bowl. Microwave first for one minute, stir, and then microwave for another 30 seconds. The cheeses should be well combined.

Add Stevia and almond flour to the cheese mixture.  Also, add the egg, but be sure that the cheese mixture is not very hot but still workable, so you do not cook the egg.

Stir the ingredients all together and knead if necessary to incorporate the ingredients. 

Measure your parchment paper to fit your air fryer basket, being sure to have raised edges to easily remove the food from the air fryer.

Dump the dough onto the pre-measured/cut parchment paper and press flat.

Pro Tips:

  • This recipe can be prepared in any size Air Fryer, basket, or oven model. I have also made this several times in the Ninja Foodi, Instant Pot Crisp Lid, and Mealthy Lid. The recipe will work the same; the cooking time may vary.
  • Use a piece of parchment paper to line the air fryer basket or tray for best results. Cut the parchment paper to fit, leaving some space around the edges.
  • Remember, since every air fryer cooks differently, you should check the Air Fryer KETO Maple Bacon Crack frequently as it cooks.

Note About The Ingredients:

Usually, I do not write about the ingredients, but I wanted to give you a few notes since this is a KETO recipe.

Stevia: I used Stevia in this recipe. Stevia is a sugar substitute that has no carbohydrates or calories. However, it’s way sweeter than regular sugar, so if you want this Air Fryer KETO Maple Bacon Crack to be less sweet, adjust the recipe to your tastebuds.

Stevia is used in most KETO diets, but several other options are available. Some other popular choices include Swerve, Monk Fruit Sweetener, and Erythritol.

Almond Flour: Almond Flour is very popular in Keto and Low-Carb Recipes, as it is low in carbs and Gluten-Free. Almonds flour is made from ground-up almonds.

Swerve Brown Sugar: One of the most popular Keto and low-carb options for brown sugar is a line made by Swerve. Monk Fruit Sweetener, Golden, and Sukrin Gold Natural Brown Sugar are other options available.

All these are available from your local grocery store, Whole Foods, or Amazon.com.
