Crispy Air Fryer Snap Peas: A Light and Tasty Snack Option

These air fryer snap peas are the perfect crunchy, healthy snack or side dish. Lightly seasoned and perfectly cooked, they offer a satisfying texture with a hint of natural sweetness.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups fresh snap peas
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat or lemon zest for extra freshness

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the snap peas
Wash the snap peas thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel. Trim the ends if desired.

Step 2: Season the peas
Place the snap peas in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle garlic powder, salt, pepper, and any optional seasoning (red pepper flakes or lemon zest). Toss to coat evenly.

Step 3: Preheat the air fryer
Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and preheat for 2-3 minutes.

Step 4: Air fry the snap peas
Place the seasoned snap peas in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Step 5: Serve and enjoy
Once the snap peas are crispy and slightly browned, remove them from the air fryer. Serve immediately as a snack or side dish.
