Cumin Carrots (Air Fryer)

Contributed By: Parker

Ingredients:

2 teaspoons coriander seeds
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 4x1/2-inch sticks
1 tablespoon melted coconut oil or butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Minced fresh cilantro, optional

Method:

1. Preheat air fryer to 325°. In a dry small skillet, toast coriander and cumin seeds over medium heat 45 to 60 seconds or until aromatic, stirring frequently. Cool slightly. Grind in a spice grinder, or with a mortar and pestle, until finely crushed.
2. Place carrots in a large bowl. Add melted coconut oil, garlic, salt, pepper and crushed spices; toss to coat. Place on greased tray in air-fryer basket.
3. Cook until crisp-tender and lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. If desired, sprinkle with cilantro.

Helpful Hints:

Air-fryer carrots make a super side—big on flavor and a breeze to cook. Plus, I can actually get my husband to eat these fragrant, deeply spiced veggies.
