How to make Carrots in the Air Fryer:

  • Prep the carrots by peeling, washing, and chopping off the ends. Then chop the carrots into slices about ½ inch thick. Try to cut them uniformly so they cook evenly.
  • Toss the carrots with oil and seasoning. The good part about the air fryer is you don't have to use a lot of oil!
