Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Bowl for tossing the broccoli optional
  • Tongs or spatula for stirring

Ingredients

  • 4 cups frozen broccoli florets
  • 1 tbsp olive oil optional
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for a few minutes while you prepare the broccoli.
  • Prepare the Broccoli: Place the frozen broccoli florets in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil (if using), and toss to coat evenly. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
  • Air Fry the Broccoli: Transfer the seasoned broccoli to the air fryer basket in a single layer. Set the air fryer to cook for 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking. If you like your broccoli extra crispy, you can cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, checking for golden brown edges.
  • Serve: Once the broccoli is crisped to your liking, remove it from the air fryer. Serve immediately as a side dish, snack, or toss it into a salad, wrap, or sandwich.
  • Optional: Add a sprinkle of Parmesan or nutritional yeast for extra flavor before serving.
