Sometimes people have trouble with the earthy flavor of beets. I know that Rick isn’t a huge fan, but he does eat smaller portions of them for health reasons. Personally, I have always loved pickled beets especially on top of a Greek salad with a bit of crumbled feta.

Roasting beets in your air fryer is super easy and a great way to bring out the natural sweetness and flavor.

Ingredients

• 1 pound fresh beets (Washed and scrubbed well)

Instructions

1. Wash and scrub your beets, you do not have to peel them nor do you have to cut them up.

Roasting with foil or parchment paper:

1. Wrap Beets in foil or parchment paper and place in your air fryer in a single layer.
2. Set air fryer to 390 degrees for 45-60 minutes
3. Rotate beets about halfway through the cooking time for even cooking.
4. Allow to cool and either slip the peels off or enjoy a mor earthy flavor by leaving the skins on.

Roating without foil or parchment paper:

1. Place beets into your air fryer and roast at 390 degrees for 25-30 minutes
2. Rotating the beets about ½ way through the cook time.
3. Allow to cool and either slip the peels off or enjoy a mor earthy flavor by leaving the skins on.

Notes

If you have a variety of size beets, you can cut them up into even size pieces before roasting. This ensures even cooking.

Beet Juice STAINS!! so make sure that you are wearing gloves when handling them or you will get stained fingers.
