Air Fryer Broccoli
Air Fryer Broccoli is so easy to make that you will find yourself making quite often. If you like broccoli, using the air fryer lets you cook it to the perfect crispiness or softness every time. You also have the peace of mind, knowing it is healthy. All you need is about 10 minutes and you can have perfect broccoli anytime.
I like using my air fryer to cook a number of things and the more things I try in it, the more I love it. It is easy to clean and use. I also like how I can cook broccoli to the desired texture that I like, my kids like and my guests like.
Olive oil is my secret to making crispy broccoli in the air fryer. So I just brush it on and can put as much or little as I like. I also like to play around with different seasonings. I have recommended a few below, but feel free to experiment. Just make sure you sprinkle on the seasonings lightly, so you do not over season.

Ingredients
Serves: 4-6 people
- 18 ounce bag of frozen or fresh broccoli florets – this is about 1 1/2 bags of frozen broccoli or two fresh broccoli heads
- Olive oil
- Seasonings

- Tony Chacheres Creole seasoning
- Garlic salt
- Coarse black pepper
Supplies
- Air Fryer
- Silicone brush
- Small bowl for olive oil

Directions For Air Fryer Broccoli
- Brush the inside of the air fryer with olive oil.
- If you are using fresh broccoli, rinse and pat dry on paper towels the broccoli florets.
- Then place the broccoli in the air fryer. So if you are using frozen broccoli, you can pour the broccoli right into the air fryer.
- Brush the tops of the broccoli with more olive oil. This will make the broccoli nice and crispy once it cooks.
- Now sprinkle lightly the seasonings over the broccoli in the air fryer. Then mix it around so all the broccoli is covered lightly with olive oil and seasonings.
- Cook on 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. If you like softer broccoli, cook for 3 more minutes. And for crisper broccoli, cook for 8-9 minutes.
- It is ready and will go with anything you are making. Sometimes, my kids just like to snack on the crispy broccoli.
