Notes
- Do not thaw before cooking.
- Toss the frozen asparagus with melted butter or oil and seasoning to coat the spears well.
- Separate frozen asparagus by running them under cold water long enough to separate them.
- Turn unused fresh asparagus into frozen asparagus. Flash-freeze leftover fresh asparagus for 1-2 hours before transferring them to an airtight container.
- Shake or turn the asparagus over halfway through the cooking time to ensure it cooks evenly.
- When air frying, there will be liquid in the bottom of the air fryer basket. Use tongs to remove the asparagus rather than dumping it onto a plate.
- Cooking times are a guide and may vary depending on your air fryer.
