Do You Need Oil When Cooking Vegetables in the Air Fryer?

Yes and no. You can get away with cooking most vegetables without oil, but they can become a bit dry.

I recommend just using up to a tablespoon of oil when cooking air fryer vegetables or spritzing them with a little oil using an EVO Oil Sprayer.

How to Air Fry Vegetables the Best way

  • Cook the vegetables in a single layer to help them cook evenly
  • Cut the vegetables in consistent sizes so they all cook at the same time
  • Shake the basket or flip the vegetables in the air fryer halfway through cooking
  • Remove the vegetables from the air fryer as soon as they’re easily pierced with a fork to prevent overcooking or burning
  • If mixing different veggies together, either cut firm vegetables smaller or cook them for a bit longer than softer vegetables

Is Cooking Vegetables in an Air Fryer Healthy?

Cooking vegetables in the air fryer is equivalent to roasting vegetables in the oven.

They require the same amount of oil and ingredients, but the air fryer cooks the vegetables much quicker than the oven! The best of both worlds!

Whether you love frozen vegetables, mixed vegetables, grilled vegetables, or more, you will love these air fryer veg recipes.

They’re not only meant for beginners but just those who want to eat more vegetables!
