This easy air fryer broccoli recipe makes perfectly tender, crispy-edged florets in just 8 minutes, with endless seasoning options to go with just about anything.
Crispy, golden edges. Tender, flavorful centers. And a quick 8-minute cook time? Yes, please. ♡
This air fryer broccoli has become my go-to way to get a veggie side on the table fast — no preheating the oven, no roasting pans to scrub, and no soggy broccoli in sight. The air fryer works its magic to caramelize the edges while keeping the inside perfectly tender, giving you that irresistible roasted flavor in a fraction of the time. Plus, you can easily switch up the seasonings to pair with whatever main dish you’re serving!
We most often make ours with a bag of pre-cut broccoli florets (time-saver!), olive oil, salt, and pepper, served with a squeeze of lemon or some freshly-grated Parmesan. But I’ve included a few other fun options below if you’d like to customize the seasonings to pair with your entrée. However you make it, this air fryer broccoli recipe is always a winner!
