Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Brussels Sprouts: Rinse the Brussels sprouts thoroughly under cold water. Trim the ends and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Slice them in half lengthwise to ensure even cooking and maximum crispiness.
  2. Season and Oil: Place the halved sprouts in a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder if using. Toss well so each sprout is generously coated but not dripping with oil.
  3. Preheat and Air Fry: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the Brussels sprouts in a single layer inside the basket to allow hot air circulation for perfect crisping. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to promote even browning.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: Once the edges are golden brown and crisp, transfer to a serving dish. Add any desired finishing touches such as a splash of balsamic vinegar, a drizzle of honey, chili flakes, Parmesan cheese, or fresh herbs before serving.

Notes

  • Choose firm, smaller Brussels sprouts for better crispiness.
  • Dry sprouts thoroughly before oiling to help achieve a crunchy texture.
  • Cook sprouts in a single layer to ensure even air circulation.
  • Use just enough oil to coat; too much can make sprouts soggy.
  • Shake the air fryer basket midway through cooking to brown evenly.
