Crispy Air Fryer Broccoli Parmesan is a delicious and healthy side dish or snack that's easy to make in your air fryer. Perfectly seasoned and coated with parmesan cheese and crispy breadcrumbs, this recipe is a winner for busy weeknights or lazy weekends.
Take a head of broccoli and cut them into florets.
In a large bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil until evenly coated.
In another bowl, mix the parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and cayenne pepper.
Dip each broccoli floret into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are well coated.
Grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray or a little oil.
Place the coated broccoli in the air fryer basket, making sure they are in a single layer.
Air fry for 10 minutes, flipping halway until the broccoli is tender and the coating is crispy and golden brown.
Serve these bite-sized pieces of broccoli garnished with chilli flakes and more cheese as a snack or as a side dish.
Notes
Start checking at 8 minutes and remove when the broccoli turns golden brown and is well roasted. Do not let it burn. Adjust spices and seasonings to suit your taste. Ensure each broccoli floret is well coated with the cheese, spices and breadcrumbs.
