How Long to Air Fry Pork Tenderloin (1-1.5 lb)

Air fry pork tenderloin (1-1.5 lb) at 400°F (200°C) for 20-26 minutes. Exact settings, when to shake, and how to tell when it is done.

400°F for 20 to 26 minutes, shake at 12.

1. 1

   Preheat the air fryer to 400°F for 3 minutes.

2. 2

   Arrange the pork tenderloin (1-1.5 lb) in a single layer with space between pieces. Crowding traps steam and stops browning.

3. 3

   Air fry for 20 to 26 minutes, shaking or flipping at the 12-minute mark.

4. 4

   Check the thickest piece with a thermometer. It is done at 145°F.

Use these settings as a starting point; thickness, quantity, and appliance model affect timing. How to use our cooking guides.
