TIPS AND TRICKS FOR MAKING AIR FRYER BRUSSEL SPROUTS

• Fresh or Frozen? You can use frozen brussels and they will completely cook, however, you will lose some of the crunch factor!
• If you like softer air fryer brussel sprouts, you can microwave the brussels for a few minutes before air frying. This will help the overall texture to be consistent.
• Too much charr? Be sure that you are slicing the sprouts in thirds or halves depending on the size of the sprouts. The smaller the pieces the easier they will burn, however the bigger pieces won’t cook all the way.
• Pro Tip: You can easily move your air fryer to your porch if you have a plug outside. You can cook your yummy (but stinky) vegetables outside!

Notes

Can I use frozen brussel sprouts? You can use frozen brussels and they will completely cook, however you will lose some of the crunch factors! Have you tried this? Drop me a note in the comments!

Soft outside, but chewy inside? If you like a softer brussel throughout, you can microwave the brussels for a few minutes before air frying. This will help the overall texture to be consistent. These brussels come out soft on the outside and a little chewier on the inside (as the recipe is written).

Sprouts burning? Be sure that you are slicing the sprouts in thirds or halves depending on the size of the sprouts. The smaller the pieces the easier they will burn, however, the bigger pieces won’t cook all the way.  It’s a little bit of a game. You can always do a few as a test batch. Sprout sizes can really vary!

How do I cook without an air fryer? You can roast your brussels at 425 degrees F for about 20 minutes! Stir once in the middle of the time frame!
