Air Fryer Carrot Fries

Step 1

Add the crushed garlic to the olive and stir well. (To crush the garlic, peel and chop a clove. Then sprinkle a bit of kosher salt on top, press the flat of your knife down firmly, and drag the garlic across the cutting board. This should create a thick paste.)

Step 2

Wash and dry the carrots. Remove the tops and cut them in half. Then cut each half in two to create flat surfaces. You should be able to cut 3 strips from the larger end and 2 strips from the smaller end.

Step 3

Toss the carrot fries in the olive oil and garlic mixture.

Step 4

Mix the parmesan with the red and black pepper. Sprinkle half the mixture over the coated carrot fries. Toss and repeat with the remaining parmesan mixture.

Step 5

Add the carrot fries to an air fryer basket or on a baking sheet in an even layer.

Step 6

Air fry at 350 for 16-20 minutes, shaking halfway through for crispier carrot fries. (If you're baking, bake for a similar time and temp.)

Step 7

Top with freshly chopped parsley or parsley flakes and dig in!
