Ingredients

  • 3 beets
  • 3/4 tablespoon oil I use avocado or olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper freshly cracked, adjust to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Peel the beets and depending on the size cut into 4 or 8 pieces each. Even sized pieces of about half inch thickness.
  2. Transfer them to a bowl. Add the oil and seasonings. Toss them well, so they are all coated with the seasoning.
Air Fryer Method
  1. Transfer the seasoned beets to the air fryer basket and spread them in a single layer. Set the air fryer to 380F (cook in batches if needed).
  2. Air fryer for 17-20 minutes for the perfect texture. Shake the basket half way through.
  3. Serve and enjoy roasted beets as is or in a salad. Sprinkle some chopped or dried parsley.
Oven Method
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Transfer the beets to a large sheet pan. You can also add the oil and seasonings on the sheet pan itself.
  2. Spread evenly so they do not overlap. Cook for about 35-45 minutes. Remove from oven and serve warm.

  • Garlic powder
  • Balsamic vinegar
