Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound yellow squash trimmed, quartered lengthwise, and cut into 2-inch pieces (about 2 medium, see note 1)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, add squash, olive oil, and salt and pepper (I like at least 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper). Toss to combine. Transfer the squash to the basket of an air fryer and arrange in a single layer (work in batches if necessary).
- Air fry at 400 degrees until the squash is softened with caramelized edges, about 10 to 12 minutes. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
