Air Fryer Roasted Broccoli delivers the same caramelized flavor as oven-roasted broccoli but in a fraction of the time. It’s a quick, healthy, low-carb side that pairs well with any meal.
This recipe takes just 7 to 8 minutes to cook and makes a tasty snack or side dish.
I use my air fryer several times a week because it cooks fast and needs very little oil. For this recipe you can use any air fryer you prefer; times may vary slightly depending on the model.
Tips for making Air Fryer Roasted Broccoli
Cook for a shorter time if you prefer broccoli with a bit of crunch; cook longer if you like it softer. Check and shake the basket halfway through to ensure even browning.
For extra flavor, toss the broccoli in leftover bacon grease instead of oil, or finish the cooked florets with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan.
Air fryer models vary, so consider the timing a guideline and adjust for your equipment and personal texture preferences.
