Name: Sweet and Spicy Air Fryer Carrots
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 20 min
Ingredients: 1 pound medium carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces, larger pieces halved lengthwise; 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted; 1 tablespoon light brown sugar; 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt; 1/2 teaspoon chili powder; 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper; 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, optional; 2 tablespoons fresh mint, chopped

Cooked carrots are given a major upgrade with this quick air fryer recipe. Cayenne pepper, black pepper and chili powder give these carrots a little heat, while brown sugar and butter mix to create a sweet caramel flavor. In 10 minutes, you’ll have an impressive side that would have taken 45 minutes in the oven!

salt

chili powder

black pepper

cayenne pepper, optional

fresh mint, chopped

Toss the carrots with the butter, sugar, salt, chili powder, black pepper and cayenne pepper, if using, in a medium bowl. Transfer the carrots to a 6-quart air fryer in a single layer and cook at 400 degrees F until browned and slightly charred on the edges, about 10 minutes (see Cook's Note). Sprinkle with the mint and serve immediately.

Just a hint of spicy. Glaze doesn't stick too well, yummy though.
