Air Fryer Carrots
These delectably crispy and flavorful air fryer carrots are a game changer. They make a wonderfully healthy side dish, offering a natural sweetness and a satisfying crunch. The sprinkling of herbs and spices, along with the caramelization from the air frying process, elevates the humble carrot to a whole new level. This dish is a testament to the fact that sometimes, simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. Historically, carrots were cooked in a variety of ways, but it's the advent of air frying that has allowed us to enjoy this vegetable in its crispiest form.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Carrots
- 4, peeled and cut into sticks
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon, or to taste
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon, freshly ground
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create a flavorful mixture.
- Add the carrot sticks to the bowl and toss until they are well coated in the spice and oil mixture.
- Arrange the seasoned carrot sticks in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are in a single layer. This helps them to cook evenly and become perfectly crispy.
- Cook for 12-15 minutes. Halfway through the cooking time, shake the basket to ensure that all sides of the carrots are crisped.
- Once the carrots are crispy and golden brown, remove them from the air fryer.
- Serve hot as a side dish. They pair well with grilled meats, fish, or a hearty main salad.
