Can I use frozen broccoli?

You can, but thaw and pat it super dry first. Frozen broccoli tends to release more water, so you might need an extra minute or two of cooking time to get that perfect crispiness we love.

How do I store leftovers?

They rarely last in my house But if you have some, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 2-3 minutes to bring back that crispy texture.

Why is my broccoli soggy?

Three likely culprits: overcrowded basket (single layer only), wet florets (pat them dry), or not shaking the basket halfway (don't skip this step). Fix these and you'll get perfect crispy broccoli every time.

Can I make this without cheese?

Absolutely, The garlic and olive oil alone make a delicious healthy vegetable recipe. For extra flavor without dairy, try a sprinkle of nutritional yeast—it gives a similar savory punch.
