Arrange bacon slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if needed.
Air fry at 390°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the bacon reaches your desired crispiness.
While the bacon cooks, mix mayonnaise with minced garlic to make a quick aioli and toast the bread.
Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain briefly.
Spread garlic aioli on each slice of toast, then layer lettuce, tomato slices, and crispy bacon to build two sandwiches.
Tip: Thick-cut bacon works best in the air fryer because it renders more evenly without curling. Don't overcrowd the basket — overlapping strips will steam rather than crisp.
