Equipment

Ingredients

  • 3 cups broccoli florets rinsed and dried
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Add broccoli florets and oil to a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, and gently toss or stir to completely coat the broccoli.
  • Place broccoli into the air fryer basket.
  • Turn the air fryer to 300°F/150°C and cook for 10 minutes.  Shake the broccoli in the air fryer basket after 5 minutes.
  • Enjoy hot.

Notes

  • If you like more of a roasted type of broccoli, you can cook for 1-2 minutes longer.
  • If you prefer a more tender broccoli, you can cook for 1-2 minutes less.
  • Pro Tip: This recipe can be made in the air fryer unit with a basket or the air fryer oven. If you are using the air fryer oven, use the middle rack and select the "Air Fry" function.
  • Pro Tip: Check your food as it cooks. Each air fryer runs a bit differently. Sometimes airfying is a trial and error process. Check your food as it cooks to learn your air fryer better! When cooking a new recipe or food items be sure to check your food often to help avoid over/under cooking.
