Can I use the air fryer to make carrots?
Are you looking for a healthy and delicious way to cook carrots? Look no further than your air fryer! Yes, you can use your air fryer to make perfectly cooked carrots that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Here's step-by-step instructions on how to make air fryer carrots.
Ingredients:
- 4-5 medium-sized carrots
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat your air fryer at 375°F or 190°C for about 5 minutes.
While your air fryer is preheating, wash and peel your carrots. Cut them into sticks or rounds according to your preference.
In a mixing bowl, toss the carrot sticks with olive oil until they are well coated.
Season the carrot sticks with salt and pepper as per taste.
Once preheated, place the carrot sticks in the basket of your air fryer. Make sure they are arranged in a single layer so that they cook evenly without overlapping each other.
Cook the carrots at 375°F or 190°C for about 10-12 minutes, shaking them halfway through cooking time so that they cook evenly from all sides.
Once done, remove the basket from the air fryer carefully using tongs as it will be hot!
Transfer cooked carrot sticks to a plate or serving dish before serving hot!
Tips:
If you want crispy browned edges on your carrots then toss them with some brown sugar before putting them in an Air Fryer.
Adjust cooking time depending upon how thickly you have cut carrot pieces.
