Don’t have an air fryer - think I could just use my oven or my toaster oven to do the job? Need more time?

This is a delicious treat. I selected asparagus with thicker stalks, and so cooked them for about ten minutes in the air fryer. The asparagus were perfectly crisp-tender. An easy and delicious treat.

I just replaced our old air fryer with a new Oster air fryer,haven’t had a chance to make this in it yet as I’m sure it will be delicious,normally we just grill it on our gas grill or wood pellet smoker grill which is fantastic, we place the asparagus in a ziplock bag & coat it with EVO then add fresh minced garlic & freshly ground black pepper and mix well then place in refrigerator for 3 hrs then wrap a strip of thick cut bacon around 2-3 stalks and grill until bacon is done to your liking. Enjoy ??
