Air-fryer Brussels Sprouts

Ingredients

• 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
• 1-2 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• Optional: 1/2 tsp garlic powder or smoked paprika for extra flavor

Instructions

1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
2. In a bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings until evenly coated.
3. Place the Brussels sprouts in the air fryer basket in a single layer (cook in batches if needed).
4. Air fry for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
5. Check for doneness — the Brussels sprouts should be crispy on the outside and tender inside.
6. Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a squeeze of lemon juice or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
