Equipment

  • air fryer
  • mixing bowl (optional)
  • tongs or spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 bag frozen mixed vegetables (broccoli, carrots, green beans, or cauliflower)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil spray (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 380°F for a few minutes to ensure even cooking.
  • Add frozen vegetables directly into the air fryer basket in a single layer without thawing.
  • Lightly spray with olive oil if desired to enhance crispiness.
  • Cook for 10–15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder after cooking for best flavor.
  • Serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Notes

Avoid overcrowding the basket for best crispiness. Always preheat the air fryer and shake halfway through cooking. Add seasoning after cooking to prevent sogginess. Optional toppings like parmesan or lemon juice can enhance flavor.
