How to Make Beets in the Air Fryer

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point and is healthier.

balsamic vinegar

🥗Healthier: red wine vinegar

💰Cheaper: apple cider vinegar

Red wine vinegar provides a similar acidity at a lower cost.

Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.

Wash and peel the beets, then cut them into uniform cubes.

In a bowl, combine the beet cubes with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Toss until the beets are evenly coated with the mixture.

Place the seasoned beets in the air fryer basket in a single layer.

Air fry the beets for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.

Check for doneness; the beets should be tender when pierced with a fork.

Once cooked, remove the beets from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving bowl.

Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and lemon juice.

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
