Air Fryer Broccoli: Fresh Or Frozen
Air Fryer Broccoli is a quick and easy way to get perfectly crispy and tender broccoli with minimal effort! Tossed in a simple blend of olive oil, garlic, and seasonings, this roasted broccoli comes out with a delicious crunch and deep flavor in just minutes.

Instructions
- Snip the broccoli crowns down to bite-sized pieces using kitchen scissors or a knife.
- Place them in a large bowl.
- Drizzle the broccoli with the oil and cover with the salt and pepper. Toss the broccoli around in the bowl to get a nice evenly coating.
- Meanwhile, preheat the air fryer.
- Place broccoli in the air fryer basket evenly.
- Cook at 400 degrees for 8 minutes.
- Toss the basket halfway and cook for another 8 minutes.
- Let your crispy air fryer broccoli cool a bit and serve!
Notes
Grease: Remember to grease your air fryer basket well before you add the frozen broccoli florets and make the air-fried frozen broccoli.
Cooking Times: The cooking time for this recipe may differ slightly based on the size of the broccoli florets, and the kind of air fryer you are using. I would recommend using either Cosori Air Fryer or Ninja Air Fryer for best results.
Add Lemon: Sometimes, I also like to top the broccoli florets with a little squeeze of lemon juice right before I serve it. If you love lemony flavors, you can also add a dash of lemon zest and some more lemon juice into the seasoning mix along with the olive oil and salt.
