- Toss in Parmesan in the last couple of minutes so it doesn't burn.
FAQ about artichoke hearts in an air fryer
- What temperature should I cook artichoke hearts at in an air fryer?
- Cook artichoke hearts at 380 °F (193 °C). The convection air at this temperature cooks the centre evenly while still browning the surface.
- How long do artichoke hearts take in an air fryer?
- Artichoke hearts take 10 minutes total at 380 °F (193 °C). Shake the basket once at 5 minutes so both sides cook evenly.
- Do you need to shake artichoke hearts in an air fryer?
- Yes — shake the basket once at 5 minutes. Loose pieces (artichoke hearts) settle into the basket and the bottom layer stays pale unless you redistribute them halfway through.
- Do you need to preheat the air fryer for artichoke hearts?
- Preheating is optional for artichoke hearts — most modern air fryers reach temperature in under 2 minutes and the food's total cook time already accounts for the ramp-up. If you do preheat, reduce the total time by 1–2 minutes and check earlier than usual.
