Introduction

Broccoli is one of the healthiest foods you can eat. It’s high in vitamins and nutrients, and it’s also very versatile. You can eat it raw or cooked, alone or paired with other ingredients for a side dish. Roasting broccoli is an easy way to cook this vegetable at home—and it only takes about 45 minutes! To roast broccoli, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (180 C), lay the florets on a baking sheet with space between them so they roast evenly, then roast until browned and tender (about an hour).

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Check that the oven is at the correct temperature, by placing a small piece of foil in the center of your oven and watching for it to turn light brown in about 5 minutes. If it takes longer or doesn’t happen at all, adjust accordingly (see below).
• For convection baking: In order to ensure even cooking and browning, set your racks one position apart from each other halfway through cooking time so that food on both racks gets equal exposure to hot air currents produced by convection mode.*

Lay broccoli florets on a baking sheet, with about two inches between them.

Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes, then turn the oven down to 350 and bake for another five minutes or so until they’re crisp-tender but not mushy (this will depend on how small your florets are).

Roast for 30 minutes, then turn over and roast for another 15 minutes or until the broccoli is browned and tender.

Once the broccoli has been in the oven for 30 minutes, turn it over and roast for another 15 minutes or until the broccoli is browned and tender. If you still don’t think your broccoli looks done after 40 minutes of roasting, let it cook another 5 minutes on each side.

You can roast broccoli in the oven for about one hour to make it tender and crispy.

To make your broccoli tender and crispy, bake it at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about one hour. To roast the florets, arrange them on a baking sheet in a single layer and drizzle some olive oil over them. Bake until they’re browned on top and tender inside (but not mushy), which should take between 45 minutes to an hour depending on how large your pieces are.

Once they’re done roasting, serve them with melted cheese or ranch dressing for dipping!
