Ingredients
- 500 g Brussel sprouts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 120 g Bacon
- ⅓ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 40 g grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Cut the bacon into small dices.
- Wash and trim Brussels sprouts, and cut them in half.
- Soak the Brussel sprouts in water for 10 minutes if you like them soft and tender and not too crispy. This step is optional.
- Place the Brussel sprouts in a bowl and add the salt, pepper, olive oil, and bacon.
- Give them all a good mix and then place them in your air fryer's basket in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the basket, if your air fryer's capacity is not big enough to take them all, do it in batches.
- Set your air fryer to 180° C (360° F) and roast them for 10 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy on the outside. Shake the basket halfway when cooking.

Notes
- Make sure to prepare the Brussel sprouts properly: Trim the stalk, get rid of the outer leaves, and cut the larger ones in half to make sure they all are the same size.
- Soak the Brussel sprouts in water for 10 minutes before roasting them if you like the insides soft and tender.
- Place the Brussel sprouts in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding for a crunchy texture.
- Shake your air fryer basket halfway during the cooking to flip the Brussel sprouts.
- Adjust the timing and the temperature as they vary depending on the model of your air fryer.
