This Broccoli Tots Recipe is made with an air fryer. With lots of frozen broccoli bags, I searched around for what I should use this broccoli for. Tell me the backstory, I love broccoli, but I prefer fresh over frozen. And my daughter, who was away at school and was only eating broccoli, recently decided she didn't want to eat them, so I took them home. While filling up my freezer, I had to find a use for them. And this is what I made.

I had made several tot recipes before and enjoyed them. When you buy tots at the grocery store, they all have gluten. Since we are a gluten-free home, I needed to find a way to make them without using gluten. If you want to see my other gluten-free tot recipes, check them out here. This Broccoli Tots Recipe is super easy and didn't take long. Instead of buying tots, make them yourself; here's how.

Spray the air fryer tray with nonstick spray. Grab a handful of the mixture and squeeze tight to form a tot. Remove excess liquid, if any. Then place it in the tray on a single layer. Separately evenly to allow for circulation in the air fryer tray. When the tray is filled, place it into the air fryer at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until brown. Remove and let sit for a few minutes and serve.

Broccoli Tots Recipe Variations

Here are a few homemade tater tots tips to make this recipe.

Catalina Crunch Low Carb Cereal
  • Spicy - add 4 teaspoon of Frank's Red Hot instead of 2 tsp.
  • Garlic - You can replace minced garlic with granulated garlic by adding 1 tsp. It is more flavorful, so you do not need as much.
  • Kid-friendly - add a dipping sauce for the kids to dip the tots in.
  • Change out the cheese - You can also use cheddar cheese if you don't want to use the Romano cheese. Use the same quantity as the Romano cheese.

Equipment

Equipment is a big part of making this recipe. You must have an air fryer. Below are some I found on Amazon you can buy. (affiliate links)

Storage for homemade broccoli tots

You can store them in the refrigerator for a few days. But they are best when eaten right away.

Top tip

Remove the juice when squeezing the broccoli mixture into a tot is critical for crispy tots.
