Kalettes (kale sprouts, flower sprouts) are a cross between kale and brussels sprouts. Get the most out of the vegetable with this easy roasted kalette recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 lb kalettes aka kale sprouts
- 2 tbsp neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven or air fryer to 350 °F (175 °C).
- Wash 1 lb kalettes (aka kale sprouts) thoroughly and shake dry.
- Toss with 2 tbsp cooking oil, 1/4 tsp salt, and other seasoning of choice. Go in with your hands and really massage the oil and seasoning into the kalette leaves.
- Oven: Arrange kalettes on a baking sheet, spaced apart. Don’t overcrowd the pan. Roast at 350 °F (see Note 1) for 12–14 minutes on the rack closest to the heating element.
- Air Fryer: Tip kalettes onto the preheated air fryer tray. The kalettes can be touching each other, but don't let them overlap. Air fry at 350 °F for 7–8 minutes, shaking halfway.
Notes
- Kalettes can overcook easily in the oven. I use a thermometer to verify my oven temperature. If you don’t have an oven thermometer, you may have to adjust the cooking time depending on whether your oven runs colder or hotter.
