4 cups pumpkin chunks, ¼ teaspoon black pepper powder, ¼ teaspoon nutmeg powder, ¼ teaspoon cinnamon powder, ¼ teaspoon garlic minced or powdered, salt to taste, 3 teaspoon olive oil
Place the pumpkin chunks in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for 10-15 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
Once they are done, they should be golden brown and slightly crisp on the outside.
Lay them aside on a wire rack or paper towel to let them cool.
Serve warm with a side of vegan chili to get a perfectly balanced, fall flavored meal!
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket. You may need to adjust the cooking time depending on the size of your air fryer.
- If you want a sweeter version, add a tablespoon or two of maple syrup before cooking.
- Use a thin layer of canned avocado oil or olive oil spray in the air fryer basket to avoid pumpkins getting stuck to the basket.
- You could also add some chopped rosemary or thyme for a savory version.
