Notes
- Tips
- Frozen Brussels sprouts: When cooking from frozen, you won't be able to cut them, so I prefer to use petite Brussels sprouts. Spread them in the air fryer basket, cook for an additional 2-4 minutes, and set the temperature to 380°F. This will allow the excess moisture to evaporate.
- Variations:
- If you can, buy similar-sized Brussels sprouts so they all cook evenly.
- You want the Brussels sprouts to be in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- If you are doubling the recipe, then cook in multiple batches. Note that as the air fryer is already heated with the first batch, the second batch will cook quickly.
- Toss them in buffalo sauce. I have had these at BJ’s, and they are awesome.
- Add parmesan and breadcrumbs with the olive oil before cooking. Or just sprinkle some parmesan on the top before serving.
