Ingredients
Crispy Brussels Sprouts
- 1 lb. Brussels sprouts, cleaned
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, or as needed
Sauce
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon Chipotle Chili powder or chili powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon honey
Instructions
- Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts. Slice them in half through the stems. For larger ones, cut them into quarters. Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, if preheating is needed.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the BRUSSELS SPROUTS with OLIVE OIL, GARLIC and SALT. Toss everything together until evenly coated.
- Place the seasoned Brussels sprouts in the air fryer basket. Set the air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (cooking at this high temperature for a shorter time is crucial for getting that desired crispiness) and air fry for 10-15 minutes (start checking for doneness after 10 minutes). Shake the basket at least twice while roasting for even crisping.
- In a small bowl, mix together melted BUTTER, CHILI POWDER, SMOKED PAPRIKA, SALT, RED PEPPER FLAKES, HONEY, and MAPLE SYRUP.
- Remove the Brussels sprouts from the air fryer and transfer them to a bowl. Toss with the sauce.
- Serve immediately.
- Enjoy
Tip: After trimming and cutting the Brussels sprouts into halves or quarters, you can soak them in cold water for about 15 minutes. This helps to clean them thoroughly and can also improve their texture when cooked.
Notes
To store, place them in an airtight container or a jar with a lid and keep them in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for up to 3 days.
To freeze, place them in a freezer-safe container. They can be stored like this for up to 3 months. When you're ready to eat them again, make a fresh batch of spicy sauce to add after reheating.
Reheating Instructions: The best method to reheat your leftover Brussels sprouts is by air frying them. Simply preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and air fry them for 4 to 5 minutes. Alternatively, you can quickly toss them in a hot skillet or pan. For a quicker option, reheat them in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. We recommend to make more sauce and add it to the Brussels sprouts after reheating for the best flavor.
