Air Fryer Carrots
Description
This recipe begins with whole carrots tossed in olive oil and a blend of sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder before air frying at 390°F. The carrots are cooked in two stages with a flip halfway through, ensuring even cooking and tender texture. The resulting carrots are softened and can have a caramelized surface depending on the air fryer model and timing.
The maple tahini sauce combines tahini and maple syrup, creating a creamy, sweet complement to the savory carrots. Garnishing with fresh rosemary adds aromatic herbal notes.
These carrots provide a nutritious side dish that can accompany various meals, and the sauce offers an extra flavor dimension. Timing and seasoning can be adjusted according to personal preference and air fryer power.
