Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Asparagus

1. Cut each asparagus spear into 3 equal sized pieces and bundle the 3 pieces together.
   
2. Lay a strip of bacon flat on a cutting board horizontally. Place an asparagus bundle on the left side of the bacon and tightly roll the bacon around the asparagus. Repeat this process with the remaining 11 asparagus bundles and bacon strips.
   
3. In a small microwavable bowl, add the olive oil, coconut sugar and tamari. Microwave for 15-20 seconds then give the glaze a good stir and ensure the sugar has melted.
   
4. Brush each asparagus bacon bundle with the glaze.
   
5. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (190°C) and set the timer for 10 minutes.
   
6. Once the air fryer is up to temperature, carefully add the asparagus bundles to the air fryer, bacon seam side down. Cook for 10 minutes until the bacon is crispy. Be sure to check halfway through.
   
7. Remove the asparagus bundles from the air fryer and set aside to cool a little before serving.
