Notes

  • If your air fryer doesn't have a preheating option, you can set the temperature to 400°F (204°C) and then let it cook for 4-5 minutes without food.
  • Reduce the cooking temperature to 380°F (193°C) if you're using a 4-quart air fryer or smaller. They generate more heat because of the heating element's proximity to the food.
  • Roasted to Perfection – For a caramelized golden brown finish cook the broccoli for an additional 2-4 minutes.
  • Minimize Browning – If you want to minimize browning with your cruciferous vegetables, lower the heat to 300°F (149°C).
  • I used a 6-quart Instant Pot Vortex Plus to test the air fryer frozen broccoli recipe. Cooking time and temperature may vary depending on your air fryer and the number of servings you are making. For optimal results, begin with the lower end of the suggested cooking time.
  • Water may accumulate in your air fryer basket. Remove the roasted broccoli with non-abrasive tong then, dump the water in the sink.
