Ingredients
  

  • 6 large tomatoes halved
  • 2 shallots peeled and halved
  • 1 head of garlic top half cut off
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (optional)
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Begin by preheating the air fryer to 380°F (190°C).
  • Cut the top off the head of garlic and place on a square piece of aluminum foil. Bring the foil up and around garlic. Pour olive oil on top and season with salt and pepper. Close ends of foil over garlic, creating a pouch.
  • Air fry until garlic is soft, 16 to 20 minutes. Set aside.
  • Raise the air fryer temperature to 400°F (200°C).
  • Place the halved tomatoes, and onion, in the air fryer basket.
  • Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables and season with salt, pepper, dried basil, dried oregano, and paprika. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.
  • Air fry for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
  • Once all the vegetables are air fried, transfer them to a blender. Squeeze the roasted garlic in with the veggies, add the vegetable or chicken broth to the blender.
  • Blend until smooth and creamy. Depending on the size of your blender, you may need to do this in batches.
  • If needed, pour the blended mixture into a pot or saucepan. Heat the soup over medium heat until warmed through.
  • If using heavy cream, stir it into the soup until well combined. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
  • Ladle the air fried tomato soup into bowls. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
