Parsnips are a root vegetable that has been cultivated for centuries. They're a good source of vitamins and minerals, and they have a slightly sweet, nutty flavor. Parsnips can be roasted, boiled, or mashed, but our favorite way to cook them is in the air fryer. Air frying gives parsnips a crispy exterior and a tender interior, and it's a much healthier way to cook them than frying them in oil. Plus, air fryer parsnip fries are a great way to use up leftover parsnips. So if you're looking for a delicious and healthy snack, give our air fryer parsnip fries a try.
