I love roasting carrots to bring out their sweetness. I think thyme really complements the flavor of these air-fryer carrots, but feel free to mix it up and use other herbs, like rosemary or tarragon. —Marlene Schott, Devine, Texas

Ingredients

  • 1 pound baby carrots
  • 2 small onions, quartered
  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • Fresh thyme, optional

Directions

  1. Preheat air fryer to 375°. In a large bowl, toss first 8 ingredients. Place carrots on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook until carrots are crisp-tender, 18-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. If desired, sprinkle with fresh thyme.

Air-Fryer Carrots Tips

Can you use regular carrots instead of baby carrots?

If you only have regular carrots on hand, simply peel and cut them into 2-inch sections. They may take a few minutes longer in the air fryer, so use a fork to check for tenderness.

What can you serve with air-fryer carrots?

These air-fryer carrots are the perfect side to throw in while your oven or stovetop is otherwise occupied. Try pairing them with roasted chicken or a pot roast.

How do you store air-fryer carrots?

Keep these carrots in a well-sealed container in the refrigerator, where they’ll last for 3 to 4 days. Reheat them in the air fryer until heated through. If you loved this recipe, try more of our easy carrot recipes.
