Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb broccoli florets, about 5–6 cups
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Toss broccoli with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until well coated.
  2. Arrange broccoli in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if needed. Air fry for 6 minutes, shake the basket, then cook 3 to 6 minutes more until deeply browned and crisp.
  3. Transfer to a bowl, squeeze lemon over the top or toss with Parmesan, and serve immediately.

Notes

Best served right away. If using a whole head of broccoli, one large head yields about 1 lb of florets. Frozen broccoli is not recommended because it won’t crisp.
