Taraβs Tips for Perfect Air Fryer Broccoli EVERY TIME:
- use fresh broccoli, not frozen if you have it available!
- high heat oil works best β¦ I Avocado Oil for this one.
- bring on the heat! if you like it hot sprinkle on the red pepper flakes before and after cooking.
- adjust your timing, every air fryer and every batch of broccoli is different, increase cook time if needed but not the heat or they will burn!
- put a little work in at the beginning and cut each floret into similar bite size pieces so that each lovely little floret cooks evenly.
