10 Minute Crispy Air Fryer Broccoli

This air fryer broccoli recipe crisps tender broccoli florets with a light coating of olive oil and seasonings. The air fryer cooks them quickly to a bright green color with a slightly crispy texture on the edges while maintaining tender stems. Garlic powder adds a savory note balancing the mild broccoli flavor. It’s a fast and easy way to prepare broccoli with a satisfying contrast between crispiness and tenderness.

Description

To make the 10 Minute Crispy Air Fryer Broccoli, fresh broccoli florets are tossed with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. The olive oil evenly coats the florets which helps them crisp in the air fryer while locking in moisture.

Cooked at 375°F for 8 minutes with a halfway shake, the broccoli develops slight crispness on the tips and edges. The interior remains tender but not mushy. The garlic powder introduces a subtle aromatics without overpowering the vegetable’s fresh flavor.

These crispy broccoli florets can be served immediately as a simple side dish or snack. For an optional variation, adding minced garlic and parmesan cheese before cooking combines savory and cheesy elements, lending a richer flavor and aroma.
