Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 medium beets about 3/4 pound
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoons orange juice or pineapple juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F.
- Dice the beets into 1 to 1 1/2-inch cubes and add to a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and juice, season with salt, and mix well.
- Place the seasoned beets in the air fryer basket in a single layer. If they don't all fit, cook in batches. Air fry for 15 minutes, shaking the basket several times throughout. The beets are cooked until tender, crisp around the edges, and soft to the touch.
- Remove the beets from the air fryer. Sprinkle with feta and herbs and serve immediately.
Notes
Garnish ideas: I like two tablespoons of crumbled feta and a teaspoon of finely chopped parsley.
Leftovers: Keep refrigerated for 5 days or in the the freezer for 2 months.
