Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 head green cabbage cut through the core into 5 wedges
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp water

Method
 

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.
  2. Cut the cabbage through the core into 5 wedges about 1 inch thick; keep the core attached so the wedges hold together.
  3. Pat the cut sides dry with paper towels.
  4. In a large bowl, toss cabbage wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and water until evenly coated.
  5. Arrange wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket; cook in batches if needed.
  6. Air fry for 6 minutes, then flip the wedges carefully with tongs and a thin spatula.
  7. Air fry 6 to 9 minutes more until the edges turn deep golden and crisp and the centers feel tender when pierced with a knife.
  8. Serve warm.

Notes

- Arrange wedges in a single layer for even cooking; cook in batches if needed.
- Flip halfway through cooking to crisp on all sides; rotate the basket once halfway through if your air fryer browns unevenly.
- Store cooled wedges in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days; reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 7 minutes.
