Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium head of cauliflower (about 1.5–2 pounds), cut into florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper
- optional: chopped parsley, lemon wedges or freshly-grated Parmesan for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer. Preheat your air fryer to 390°F (200°C) for 3–5 minutes.
