Ingredients:
- 1 can of Spam (12 ounces)

Optional Seasonings:
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)
Instructions:
- Preheat Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
- Prepare Spam:
- Slice the Spam into 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick slices.
- Season (Optional):
- If desired, you can season the Spam slices with your preferred seasonings. Combine garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the Spam slices and gently rub it in.
- Grease Air Fryer Basket (Optional):
- Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking, although Spam tends to release some oil during cooking.

- Cook Spam:
- Air fry the Spam slices at 400°F (200°C) for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through the cooking time. The Spam should be golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges.
- Check for Doneness:
- Check the Spam slices for desired crispiness. If needed, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Serve:
- Once done, remove the air-fried Spam slices from the air fryer basket. Serve hot as desired.
