These crispy Air Fryer Carrots and Potatoes are the perfect side dish for busy weeknights. They're a delicious combo of sweet and spicy, are easy to make and cook in less than 25 minutes.
While the air fryer heats chop potatoes into quarters or smaller if big. You want bite size pieces. Peel and chop your carrots into chunks.
Add the carrots and potatoes to a bowl and mix with 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Be sure to evenly coat the carrots and potatoes.Add the carrots and potatoes to the air fryer and cook at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 minutes.
Remove the carrots and potatoes from the air fryer and place back in the bowl you used to cover in olive oil. Add maple syrup, garlic, pinch of salt and pepper and red pepper flakes to taste. I do about 3-4 good shakes.Return to the air fryer and cook for another 10 minutes until the carrots and potatoes are fork tender. Top with chopped parsley and enjoy.
