- Place the broccoli florets in a bowl and mix together the oil, garlic powder, and salt.
- Transfer to the air fryer basket. Close and cook for about 4-5 minutes. Open the basket, sprinkle the broccoli with the nutritional yeast, and use a long wooden or plastic spoon to gently mix and turn the broccoli.
- Close the basket and cook for another 2-3 minutes for fresh broccoli or 3-5 minutes for frozen broccoli, until the broccoli is crispy and caramelizing.
