Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound Brussels Sprouts Look for firm, bright green sprouts; rinse before using.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Helps to crisp up the sprouts.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances natural flavors.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pepper Freshly cracked for added warmth.
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese Grated; add while hot for melty goodness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Trim the ends and halve the Brussels sprouts.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until coated.
Cooking
  1. Place Brussels sprouts in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  2. Air fry for 15-18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  3. Once crispy, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese while hot.
  4. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

For best results, avoid overcrowding the basket. Experiment with flavors like garlic powder or smoked paprika, and consider using freshly grated Parmesan for a creamier melt.
