Air fryer Roasted Carrot "Fries"

Ingredients:

3-4 Carrots

2 Tbls. Olive Oil*

1 clove Garlic, crushed

2 Tbls. Grated Parmesan

¼ tsp. kosher salt or more to taste

Instructions:

Add the crushed garlic to the olive and stir well. (To crush the garlic, peel and chop a clove. Then sprinkle a bit of kosher salt on top, press the flat of your knife down firmly, and drag the garlic across the cutting board. This should create a thick paste.)

Peel and cut carrots into sticks about the size of a fry.

Toss the carrot fries in the olive oil and garlic mixture.

Sprinkle half the parmesan over the coated carrot fries. Toss and repeat with the remaining parmesan. Add the carrot fries to an air fryer basket or on a baking sheet in an even layer.

Air fry at 350 for 16-20 minutes, shaking halfway through for crispier carrot fries. (If you're baking, bake for a similar time and temp.)

Top with additional parmesan and crushed red pepper flakes.
