Ingredients
- 3–4 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the broccoli: Add broccoli florets, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to a large bowl. Toss thoroughly to ensure the broccoli is evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
- Air fry the broccoli: Transfer the seasoned broccoli to the air fryer basket, spreading them out evenly. Set the air fryer to 375°F and cook for 8 minutes. Remember to shake or toss the broccoli halfway through the cooking time to promote even crisping.
- Serve immediately: When the timer goes off, carefully remove the broccoli from the air fryer and serve hot as a side dish or snack for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Make sure the broccoli florets are evenly sized to ensure uniform cooking.
- For extra crispiness, you can cook a minute or two longer but watch carefully to avoid burning.
- Feel free to customize the seasoning by adding chili flakes or grated Parmesan cheese after cooking.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to let the hot air circulate properly for crispiness.
