Servings 2
Calories 135kcal
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the head of cauliflower by cutting off the bottom stem with any leaves that remain.
- Then, cut into bite-size florets.
- In a small bowl, toss the cauliflower in the oil, spices, salt and pepper.
- Air fry at 390°F for 15 minutes.
- Halfway through the time (7 or 8 minutes is fine), pause the air fryer and give the basket a good toss so the cauliflower pieces get tossed around.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- It’s best not to overcrowd the air fryer pan if possible. One medium to small head of cauliflower should fit in most air fryer baskets just fine. I have an air fryer with two baskets so I can air fry two heads of cauliflower at once.
- If cayenne just isn’t your thing or you want to make this less spicy (heat), you can swap it for paprika or another spice you prefer.
- Toss a little grated Parmesan cheese over this just as it comes out of the air fryer and is still hot. It’s so good!
