Easy Way to Air Fry Frozen Vegetables

Step 1:

Preheat your air fryer for 5 minutes. This will allow the air fryer basket to get hot so that when the frozen vegetables touch it, the ice will automatically start to melt.

Step 2:

Once your air fryer is hot, pour a tablespoon of water into your air fryer basket. This will prevent the air fryer from smoking while the vegetables are cooking. Do not defrost your frozen vegetables. Yes, you don’t need to defrost them. Add the frozen vegetables to the air fryer basket. Add nonstick cooking oil, and season with salt, and pepper. You can also add your preferred favorite seasonings.

Step 3:

Air fry the broccoli for about 15 minutes.

Step 4:

Transfer the vegetables to a serving bowl. Pour a teaspoon of vegetable oil and season with more salt or your favorite seasonings. Gently toss and enjoy!
