Instructions

Prepare the Bologna:

Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes to ensure it reaches the optimal temperature for crisping.
Prepare the Bologna: Place the bologna slices on a cutting board. For an extra crisp texture, use a knife or scissors to make small slits around the edges of each slice. This will prevent them from curling up during cooking.
Coat the Bologna: Lightly brush or spray the bologna slices with olive oil on both sides. If using, season with a pinch of black pepper to taste.

Cook the Bologna:

Arrange the Bologna in the Air Fryer: Place the bologna slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure they aren’t overlapping to allow for even cooking.
Air Fry: Cook the bologna slices at 380°F (190°C) for 5-6 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure they get evenly crispy on both sides. For extra crispness, cook for an additional minute or two.
Check for Crispness: When the bologna slices are golden brown and crispy on the edges, remove them from the air fryer.

Assemble and Serve:

Optional Sandwich: If you’re making a sandwich, place the air-fried bologna slices on sandwich bread or rolls. Add your preferred condiments, such as mustard, ketchup, or mayonnaise, and layer on additional toppings like pickles or onions.
Serve: Serve the crispy air-fried bologna slices immediately. They can be enjoyed as a stand-alone snack or as a filling in a sandwich.
