Air Fryer Carrots
Air Fryer Carrots are seasoned with olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and optionally garnished with rosemary. Roasting in the air fryer produces tender and slightly caramelized carrots. An optional maple tahini sauce adds a sweet and nutty layer of flavor when drizzled over the warm carrots, offering a simple yet distinctive side dish.
