Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat Preparation: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Also, preheat your oven to 200°F (95°C) to keep the cooked vegetables warm. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Breading Station Setup: In a shallow dish, combine the flour, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and pepper. In a second shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and water. In a third shallow dish, combine the panko bread crumbs and vegetable oil, mixing well to moisten the crumbs. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Vegetable Prep: Sprinkle the green beans, asparagus, red onion, sweet pepper, avocado, and zucchini with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Breading Process: Dip each vegetable piece in the flour mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, dip it in the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat it thoroughly with the panko mixture, pressing gently to help the crumbs adhere. (15 minutes)

05

Step

Air Frying: Arrange half of the breaded vegetables in a single layer in the air fryer basket, being careful not to overcrowd. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. (8-10 minutes)

06

Step

Finishing Touches: Once cooked, sprinkle the vegetables with additional salt, if desired. Transfer them to the preheated oven to keep warm while you cook the remaining vegetables. Repeat the air frying process with the remaining breaded vegetables. (8-10 minutes per batch)

07

Step

Serve: Serve immediately and enjoy!

For best results, don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. Work in batches to ensure the vegetables cook evenly and get crispy.
Feel free to experiment with different vegetables like broccoli florets, carrot sticks, or even mushroom slices.
For a flavor boost, add a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the flour mixture.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauces such as sweet chili sauce, yum yum sauce, or a tangy aioli.
