Instructions 

  • Air Fryer Broccoli 🥦🥦🥦
  • This just might be the very best broccoli you've ever had!
  • I REALLY enjoy broccoli and it's probably my #1 go-to vegetable.
  • I've always LOVED roasted vegetables...that crispy crunch just makes them so incredibly enjoyable! With the air fryer you get that same crispiness, but quicker and easier than traditional oven roasting...OH YA - you'll also need way less oil for air-fried veggies, so that's great too!
  • ➡️ Rachels Tips:
  • This recipe actually works with FROZEN broccoli too! You'll need to double the cooking time...so somewhere around 20 minutes (flipping the broccoli halfway) and you've got a delicious veggie side dish straight from the freezer if needed! Just keep an eye on things the first time since all machines are different.

  • Ingredients:
  • 1 medium head broccoli, broken into florets
  • 2 tsp avocado oil
  • sea salt and ground pepper, to taste
  • freshly chopped parsley leaves as garnish, optional
  • Additional flavors (choose any or mix them all up):
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • Instructions:
  • Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees f.
  • Place the broccoli florets into a large bowl and drizzle with the oil. Sprinkle
  • with the seasonings of YOUR choice, if desired and season with sea salt and pepper to taste.
  • Use your clean hands to toss very well. It may seem like too little oil, but
  • resist the urge to add more, or else your broccoli florets will end up soggy.
  • Transfer your broccoli into the air-fryer basket.
  • Air fry for 9-10 minutes, shaking the basket to flip the florets halfway. Keep an eye on them the first time, because all Air fryers are different.
  • Carefully remove with tongs, and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!
