How to Make Air Fryer Mini Sweet Peppers
To make air fryer mini peppers, you’ll need a few simple ingredients, including:
- Mini sweet peppers
- Olive oil spray
- Salt
- Pepper
To make them you will begin by preheating your air fryer as directed. You can cut them in half or roasted them whole. I prefer roasting them whole before they are easier to eat that way…because you still have the stem to hold onto.
Now you will spray the peppers with olive oil. Then, you will sprinkle them with a little salt and pepper.
Finally, place the peppers in the air fryer basket and cook for 6-9 minutes, until they’re tender and slightly charred.
