Ingredients
- 1 12 oz bag frozen broccoli
- 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F.
- Place frozen broccoli in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Spread broccoli evenly in the air fryer basket.
- Cook for 12–15 minutes, shaking halfway, until crispy at the edges and fork-tender inside.

Add Parmesan in the last 2 minutes for cheesy broccoli.
Don’t overcrowd the basket, work in batches if needed.
Leftovers reheat best in the air fryer, not the microwave.
