Easy Air Fryer Pumpkin
Air-fried roast pumpkin deserves a seat at the table. Golden brown, crisp, and tender, the fall recipe is ready in just a fraction of the time you’d think it’d take. Roasting pumpkin in an air fryer caramelizes the natural sugar, making it sweeter, richer, and almost buttery!

Calories: 28kcal
Ingredients
- 2.2 Ib Pumpkin
- 2-3 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 1/4 tsp Sea salt
- 1.5 tsp Roasted cumin powder
- 1.5 tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Black pepper, coarsely ground
- 1 tsp Coriander powder
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
Garnish
- Fried sage leaves, Cilantro, Pumpkin seeds, Grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Wash the pumpkin well.
- Cut the bottom and top of the pumpkin to make it stable. Cut it in half. Spoon out the seeds. Slice it thinly.I used a pumpkin with thin skin, so didn't need to peel the skin. If you're using any other kind of pumpkin, please peel it.
- In a large bowl, toss the pumpkin slices with olive oil, salt, roasted cumin powder, coriander powder, paprika, black pepper, and turmeric.
- Arrange the pumpkin slices in your air fryer basket in a single layer.
- Cook at 190 C for 10 minutes. Flip the slices over once at the 5-minute mark for even browning and cooking.
- Carefully remove from the basket and repeat with the remaining pumpkin slices.
- Arrange the roasted pumpkin on a serving platter. Garnish with fried sage leaves, fresh cilantro/coriander, pumpkin seeds, and grated parmesan cheese.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
