Air fryer Brussels sprouts are a super easy and delicious way to cook them! Here’s a simple recipe to make crispy, flavorful Brussels sprouts in your air fryer:
Ingredients:
-
1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
-
1-2 tbsp olive oil (or your preferred cooking oil)
-
1 tsp garlic powder (optional)
-
1 tsp onion powder (optional)
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
Optional: Balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, or Parmesan cheese for extra flavor
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
-
Prepare the Brussels Sprouts: Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. If any of the leaves fall off, save them—they’ll get crispy and delicious!
-
Season: In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Ensure they’re evenly coated.
-
Cook: Place the Brussels sprouts in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
-
Air Fry: Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure they cook evenly. The Brussels sprouts should be golden brown and crispy on the outside.
-
Optional Finishes: Once cooked, drizzle with balsamic vinegar or a squeeze of lemon juice for an extra kick. You can also sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top for extra flavor.
