Ingredients
Scale
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes. This helps ensure the tomatoes cook evenly.
- Place the seasoned tomatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Be careful not to overcrowd them, as this will prevent proper roasting. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil.
- Cook the tomatoes in the air fryer for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting. The tomatoes should be slightly shriveled and caramelized on the edges when done.
- Carefully remove the tomatoes from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
- Serve the roasted tomatoes warm as a side dish, or use them as a topping for salads, pasta, or bruschetta.
