    How to Make Crispy Golden Broccoli Florets

    1. Preheat the Oven

    First, preheat your oven to 400°F. This temperature is ideal for roasting because it caramelizes the sugars in the broccoli, giving it that perfect crispy, golden finish.

    2. Prepare the Broccoli

    While the oven is heating up, take your 1 pound of broccoli and cut it into florets. If you have large florets, halve or quarter them for even cooking. Don't waste the stems; slice them into ½-inch rounds.

    3. Season the Broccoli

    Spread the broccoli florets and stems evenly on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle them with the 2 tablespoons of avocado oil or light olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper. Toss the broccoli with a spatula to make sure each piece is well-coated.

    4. Roast the Broccoli

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the broccoli for 15 to 20 minutes. You'll know it's ready when the edges are lightly browned and crispy. This high-heat roasting brings out a delicious depth of flavor and texture.

    5. Extra-Crispy Finish

    For an extra-crispy finish, turn off the oven and leave the broccoli inside for an additional 5 to 10 minutes. This extra time in the residual heat will give you an even more satisfying crunch.

    6. Final Seasoning

    Finally, taste the roasted broccoli and add more salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately and enjoy your perfectly crispy golden broccoli florets!
