Ingredients
- 500 grams broccoli florets
- 1 spray olive oil spray
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Rinse the broccoli florets under cold water and pat them dry with a clean towel to remove excess moisture.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the broccoli florets with a light spray of olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Step 4
Add lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and nutritional yeast to the bowl and toss to coat the broccoli evenly with the seasonings.
Step 5
Place the seasoned broccoli florets into the air fryer basket, ensuring they are in a single layer to allow for proper air circulation.
Step 6
Air fry the broccoli for 12-15 minutes or until they are crisp and golden brown. Shake the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking.
Step 7
Once done, remove the broccoli from the air fryer and let it cool slightly before serving.
Step 8
Serve the crispy broccoli as a healthy appetizer or side dish while it is warm for the best flavor and texture.
