Preparation
Step 1
Place the spaghetti squash on a towel and use a small knife to score through the outer hard skin to cut it into two equal halves.
Step 2
Then grab a sharp heavy-duty knife and slice through the scored skin. It will cut through more easily.
Step 3
Now take a spoon and scoop out the seeds. Use a sturdy fork to poke holes in the flesh of the squash.
Step 4
Now brush the cut portion of the spaghetti squash with oil. Then, sprinkle the spices on it. Use a pastry brush or your hands to rub it all over the surface.
Step 5
Lastly, place the spaghetti squash in the air fryer basket. Air fry the spaghetti squash at 400 0F for 15-20 minutes. Mine took 17 minutes. I suggest opening the basket at 15 minutes and going from there.
Step 6
Now, use a fork to separate the strands from the skin and collect them on a plate.
Step 7
Top it with your favorite approved sauce and serve.
Step 8
Enjoy!
