Equipment

Ingredients
 

  • 16 ounces (450 g) frozen broccoli florets
  • Olive oil
  • Salt & ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Pour the frozen broccoli into the air fryer basket. Cook at 380° F(195°C) for 8 minutes, shaking the basket or turning the broccoli halfway through.
  • You can continue cooking if you like your broccoli to be more crisp and charred on the edges.
  • Remove from the air fryer. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

  • Lightly coat the broccoli with olive oil or cooking spray to help it crisp up.
  • Season the broccoli with your choice of spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, for added flavor.
  • Check for doneness by testing the broccoli with a fork – it should be tender and slightly crispy on the edges.

All air fryers have different wattage and may cook at different rates. You may need to adjust the time or temp for the best results.
