Easy Air Fryer Cabbage
Air fried cabbage is amazing! It’s a healthy side dish that's both delicious and has great texture. The air fryer helps deliver crisp edges and tender, flavorful cabbage in a fraction of the time compared to traditional methods. I love eating cabbage made this way!

Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ medium Cabbage Cut into bite sized pieces
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil vegetable or canola oils are good substitutions. You want a light flavored oil, so not extra virgin olivle oil.
- 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar Any favorite vinegar will work
- 1 teaspoon Salt I prefer a course salt like Kosher salt.
- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ½ teaspoon Paprika Reserve some for garnish at the end. Smoked paprika is great, if you have it handy.
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 375℉. Spray air fryer tray with nonstick spray. (I use the oven type of air fryer).
- Cut cabbage in ½, remove core and then chop into bite sized pieces. Use the other ½ another day or for another recipe. Place cut up cabbage into a medium sized bowl.
- Add the rest of the ingredients, and mix well, evenlly coating cabbage. Reserve a little of the paprika to sprinkle on top at the end.
- Air fry for 5 minutes. Stir or shake. Air fry for another 5 minutes. Stir. Watch closely for the next 2-3 minutes. Cabbage will start crisping but can over crisp (burn) quickly. I remove from heat once cabbage just starts browning around some of the edges.
Notes
Storage - Place in a sealed container and refrigerate up to 3 days. Tastes great cold in a salad. I prefer to reheat in my air fryer for 3 - 4 minutes.
Flavor Variations - The recipe and seasonings provided are a good starting point. Experiment with salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder as basics.
If you like spicy food, try hotter spices like Cajan seasonings.
Love Italian foods? Use Italian herb blends and add a little parmesan.
