Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Air Fryer Broccoli
  1. Start by rinsing fresh broccoli florets under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry thoroughly with a kitchen towel.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the dried broccoli florets with extra virgin olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Set your air fryer to 200°C (400°F) and allow it to preheat for about 5 minutes.
  4. Carefully place the seasoned broccoli into the air fryer basket in a single layer and air fry for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  5. After 8-10 minutes, check the broccoli for tenderness and adjust cooking time as necessary.
  6. Once cooked to perfection, remove gently from the air fryer and transfer to a serving platter.
