Can I use frozen broccoli instead of fresh?

Technically yes, but fresh really is best here. Frozen broccoli tends to release too much water, making it harder to get that perfect crisp. If you must use frozen, thaw completely and pat extra dry with paper towels first.

How can I make these gluten-free?

Easy peasy, Just swap regular breadcrumbs for gluten-free panko or crushed gluten-free crackers. I've even used almond flour in a pinch - gives a nice nutty flavor. If you are looking for other gluten-free options, you might enjoy these heart-shaped seed crackers .

Why aren't my broccoli wings crispy?

Usually this means either overcrowding the air fryer basket or not drying the broccoli enough before coating. Also, don't skip shaking the basket halfway - that movement helps all sides get evenly crispy.

Can I make these ahead of time?

They're best fresh, but you can prep the coated florets up to 2 hours before cooking. Just keep them uncovered in the fridge so they don't get soggy.
