Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cracked black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse and thoroughly dry the broccoli florets with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, paprika, and nutritional yeast.
Add the broccoli florets to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Place the coated broccoli florets in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the broccoli for 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time, until the broccoli is crispy and browned at the edges.
Remove the broccoli from the air fryer and let it cool slightly before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy your crispy, low sodium broccoli!
