Select DOUBLE STACK PRO (unit will default to AIR FRY). Select Zone 1, set temperature to 375°F, and set time to 40 minutes. Select Zone 2, then use the dial to select BAKE, set temperature to 325°F, and set time to 15 minutes. Select SMART FINISH, then press START/PAUSE to begin cooking (Zone 2 will read HOLD until it’s time to start cooking).

When cooking is complete, use an instant-read thermometer to ensure internal temperature of the pork has reached at least 145°F. Remove pork from the rack and allow to rest for 5 minutes. To remove rack, use tongs to grab the center of it, or wear oven mitts and lift the rack out using the handles on its sides. Slice the pork tenderloin and serve warm with potatoes and biscuits.
