Getting Started
- Ensure Brussels sprouts are thoroughly dry before adding oil and seasonings. Moisture prevents proper crisping in the air fryer.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary, allowing enough space for air circulation to achieve optimal crispness. A single layer is ideal.
- For dairy-free 'cheesy' flavor, toss cooked sprouts with 1-2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast immediately after removing them from the air fryer.
- Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket every 5-7 minutes. Adjust time based on sprout size and desired crispness.
