Easy Air Fryer Vegetables
I’m always looking for ways to get my family to eat more vegetables. And friends, I have unlocked the secret: cooking vegetables in the air fryer.
Air fryer vegetables turn out perfectly cooked and full of flavor, plus they are incredibly easy to make. Healthy veggies like green beans, broccoli, corn on the cob, asparagus, and Brussels sprouts are fast and simple to prepare and taste totally amazing.
Not only can you whip up tried and true favorites like baked potatoes, onion rings, French fries, and tater tots, but you can also use your air fryer to make apple chips, fried plantains, and popcorn (yes, really!).
Trust me, when you serve any of these awesome air fryer vegetable dishes, your family will be begging for more!
Tips For Making Vegetables in Air Fryer
- Preheat the air fryer for fast and even cooking. No preheat setting? No problem! Just run it for 3 minutes at the temperature your recipe calls for before adding the food.
- Place vegetables in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, and make sure to allow plenty of room for the air to circulate around all sides. Plan to cook in batches as needed.
- Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleaning up easy.
- If desired, lightly spritz the veggies with oil or cooking spray. Don’t oil the basket directly.
- Be sure to turn the vegetables over or shake the basket halfway through the cooking time.
- Since air fryer temperatures can vary depending on the make and model, I recommend starting with less time, checking your veggies for doneness, and then adding more cooking time as needed.
