Pork tenderloin is so easy to make, especially in the air fryer. Tender, juicy, and also keto friendly! I found this recipe from Jennifer over at https://jenniferbanz.com. You can learn more about Jennifer here. From what I’ve read, she has followed a low carb diet for @ 10 years, and has lost @ 70 pounds!! Her recipes look healthy and delicious, and since she seems to love her Air Fryer as much as I love mine, I am sure I will find some more amazing recipes!! I hope that you will check her out, and please tell her hello from me as well.
Let’s jump right in!!
What you’ll need:
- 1-pound whole pork tenderloin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 cloves garlic, pressed
- 1 Tablespoon oil (I used olive oil, Jennifer uses Avocado)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
First, press your garlic.
Next, in a prep bowl, combine the garlic powder, cumin, oregano, thyme, pressed garlic, oil, salt and pepper, mixing well. This is the rub for the pork. Yum!!
Placing your tenderloin on a cutting board, spread the rub all over the meat, being sure to coat all sides.
Put the meat on the spit, and lock into place.
Place spit into Air Fryer. Set to AIR FRY for 20-22 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 145⁰F.
Be sure to use an Instant Thermometer to check the temperature!
Remove spit from Air Fryer with removal tool, and let meat rest 8-10 minutes. Remove spit from tenderloin, slice and serve.
That’s it! It was DELICIOUS. Also, now that I know it’s also keto friendly, I can make this for some time (in the future) when I invite my friends over, knowing that this will be a healthy (and delicious!) addition to the menu.
Of course, I think this will be added to my monthly menu rotation for the family. Let me know if you make this, and please do go check out Jennifer’s recipes over at https://jenniferbanz.com. Let’s make great food together!

What temperature do you cook it at
Hi Linda, The standard air fryer temperature is 400° F. Hope this helps!
WTF : What Temperature For (oven)
For something like this, what I would do personally is sear the meat on the stove first, then bake in the oven at 425° f/220° c for 10 to 15 minutes, until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145° f/63° c. If you’re looking for what temperature the Air Fry setting temperature is, that is 400° f/200° c. I would think that you could follow this recipe and use that as a guideline as well. Just be sure to check that internal temperature. Please let me know how it comes out, and share a photo with me!
So yum! I cooked for 30 minutes and rested for 5. Absolutely perfect!!
Hi Joelle, I’m so glad you liked it!!
