Small cauliflower florets brown quickly at the edges. Adding the Parmesan near the end helps it cling to the florets, and a squeeze of lemon brightens the finished dish.
Before you start
Cut florets into similar sizes, around 1½ inches across, and dry them thoroughly after washing. The cooking time is per batch. Allow extra time if your model requires preheating.
Air Fryer Lemon Parmesan Cauliflower Bites

Ingredients
Method
- Toss the dry florets with oil and salt. Arrange in a single layer and air fry at 390°F (200°C).
- Shake the basket after 7 minutes. Continue cooking until browned and nearly fork-tender, about 10–14 minutes altogether.
- Scatter Parmesan over the cauliflower and cook for 1–2 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl, drizzle with lemon juice and serve.
Notes
Put large florets cut-side down at the start so their flat surfaces get more color.
