Prep: Preheat your air fryer to 400F/200C. Halve fresh tomatoes and place them in a large bowl. Toss the tomato halves with the oil, garlic, and balsamic vinegar. If you want more flavor, sprinkle the tomatoes with salt and pepper.
Cook: Place the tomatoes in an in a single layer in the air fryer basked with the open side facing up. Roast for 10 minutes undisturbed.Note: Cooking times can vary by air fryer and tomato size. Check on the tomatoes at the 8 minute mark to determine if you need to cook them longer.
Notes
How to Prevent Watery Tomatoes: When air frying tomatoes will release a lot of liquid. For best results, place the tomatoes cut-side up. This allows for the water to evaporate while cooking.Storing and reheating: Roasted tomatoes are best enjoyed fresh. They can be stored in an airtight container for up to two days. The longer they are stored, the more they will lose their structure and become watery.Affiliate: The equipment section may contain affiliate links to products used in this recipe.
