Notes
The Brussels sprouts should be in an even layer in the air fryer. It’s OK if they aren’t all completely flat on the bottom though. You’ll shake them halfway through the cook time and they’ll all get well browned and crisp.
The recipe calls for a scant ½ teaspoon of kosher salt. You’ll want to use between ⅓ and ½ teaspoon to get these well seasoned but not overly salted.
Feel free to substitute some red pepper flakes for the black pepper for a bit of heat.
Here are some ideas for alternate/additional seasonings if you want to change up the flavor:
- Garlic lovers, add ⅛ teaspoon of garlic powder to the mix.
- Skip the onion powder and/or add some paprika, about ¼ teaspoon.
- Use a Cajun seasoning mix in place of the salt, pepper and onion powder.
- Add a dash of ground nutmeg for a little depth and warmth.
