- Add the artichoke hearts to a bowl and drizzle in olive oil.
- Add in the garlic powder, salt, pepper, and oregano and gently stir to ensure they are well coated in the seasoning.
- Next add the arrowroot powder and stir again to ensure all evenly coated.
- Finally add in finely grated parmesan and stir one final time.
- Generously spray the preheated air fryer basket with cooking spray.
- Arrange the artichoke hearts evenly spaced out in the air fryer basket. If there is any excess parmesan from the bottom of the bowl, sprinkle it over the top of the artichokes in the basket.
- Cook them for 5 minutes, after 5 minutes flip each of the artichokes over and then cook for an additional 5mins
- While the artichoke hearts are cooking, stir together all of the ingredients for the aioli.
