How Long Do You Cook Carrots In An Air Fryer?

Air Fryer Carrots Temperature

AIR FRY 190 C / 380 F

Ingredients

• Carrots
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 1/8 teaspoon Pepper
• Pinch of Chilli Flakes
• Olive Oil

How To Cook Carrots In The Air Fryer

Wash and peel the carrots. Prefer to leave the skin on? Scrub well before cooking.

Slice diagonally or cut into batons.

In a large bowl, add olive oil, salt and pepper and a pinch of chilli flakes (optional). Mix well.

Add the carrots to the bowl. Stir to coat the carrots with the oil and seasoning.

Preheat the air fryer setting Air Fry at 190 C / 380 F for 5 minutes.

Once preheated, place the carrots in a single layer into the basket.

Cook at 190 C / 380 F for 15-20 mins. Turn halfway through cooking time.

Frozen Carrots In The Air Fryer

Preheat to 190 C / 380 F for 5 minutes

Add the carrots and cook at 190 C / 380 F for 20-25 minutes.

Turn halfway through cooking time.

Air Fryer Honey Carrots

Adding honey to carrots gives them a fabulous glossy glaze.

Omit the chilli flakes and mix the carrots with a tablespoon of honey.

Cook at 190 C / 380 F for 15-20 mins.

Line the basket with foil or use a suitable air fryer container. The honey will drip to the bottom of the basket and be difficult to clean.

Remember to turn the carrots and spoon over the melted honey halfway through the cooking time.

Air Fryer Carrots With Brown Sugar

If you’re looking for a new way to cook your carrots and achieve that perfect crispy texture, why not try air frying them in a combination of butter and brown sugar?

Gently melt 2 to 3 tablespoons of butter and mix it with 2 to 3 tablespoons of brown sugar.

Toss the peeled carrots in the mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Preheat to 190C / 380F for 5 minutes.

Place the butter and brown sugar-coated carrots in the basket and cook for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.

Your carrots should turn golden brown and crispy.

Savoury Air Fryer Carrots

Ingredients

• 500 grams (approximately 1 pound) of fresh carrots, peeled and sliced into batons or coins.
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.
• 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary.
• 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika.
• Salt and black pepper to taste.

In a large bowl, combine the carrot slices with olive oil, garlic powder, dried rosemary, smoked paprika, a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Toss the carrots until they are evenly coated with the savoury seasoning mixture.

Preheat to 190C / 380F for 5 minutes.

Carefully place the seasoned carrot slices in a single layer in the basket. Avoid overcrowding to allow proper air circulation.

Cook the carrots for about 12-15 minutes. Be sure to shake the basket halfway through the cooking time

Air Fryer Carrots Tips

• To make sure your carrots are perfectly cooked, insert a fork or toothpick into a carrot slice. It should easily pierce through, indicating that they are tender inside and crispy outside.
• Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking. Make sure your carrots are in a single layer for the best results.
• Preheating the air fryer is crucial for achieving that crispy texture. Don’t skip this step.
• The cooking time for your carrots depends on their size. Smaller carrots will cook faster, whereas larger ones will require a bit more time. To gauge their readiness, be sure to check your carrots when they’re halfway through cooking.

Storing And Freezing Cooked Air Fryer Carrots

Refrigeration

Allow your cooked carrots to cool down to room temperature.

This prevents condensation inside the storage container, which can make the carrots soggy.

Transfer the cooled carrots to an airtight container. It’s essential to seal the container tightly to prevent air from entering, which can lead to moisture retention.

Place the airtight container in the refrigerator.

Cooked carrots can be safely stored in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Be sure to check for any signs of spoilage before consuming.

Freezing

Allow the cooked carrots to cool completely.

Once cooled, transfer them to a freezer-safe, airtight container or a resealable freezer bag. Remove as much air as possible from the bag before sealing to prevent freezer burn.

Consider portioning the carrots before freezing so you can reheat only the amount you need.

Don’t forget to label the container or bag with the date. This helps you keep track of how long they’ve been in the freezer.

Place the container or bag of carrots in the freezer.

Cooked carrots can be stored in the freezer for up to 9 months.

Reheating

Air fry straight from frozen or the refrigerator.

Preheat the air fryer to 180C/360F.

Once preheated air fry the carrots for 6-8 minutes until heated through.
