These Air Fryer Carrots are a perfect quick side dish for busy weeknights! Cooked in minutes, these carrots are tender and flavorful thanks to simple seasoning mix and salty Parmesan cheese.
If you are using baby carrots, give them a rinse. If you are using regular carrots, peel and wash them. Pat dry with a paper towel and place in a bowl.
