Frozen broccoli cooks beautifully in the air fryer without needing to be thawed first.

Today, I have a tip for a quick, easy, and delicious vegetable side dish! Frozen broccoli cooks beautifully in the air fryer without needing to be thawed first. Preheat your air fryer to 220 degrees Celsius. Place about 4 cups of frozen broccoli florets in the basket and cook for 4 minutes without any seasoning. Remove the broccoli, then toss it with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, or 1 teaspoon of aquafaba or vegetable broth for an oil-free option, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, ½ teaspoon of sea salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Return it to the air fryer and cook for another 6–8 minutes, until the florets are lightly browned and crispy on the outside. This easy recipe proves that healthy, delicious sides don’t have to be complicated!
