Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound brussel sprouts, halved, and quarter the large Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoon oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper, coarse ground
Instructions
- Trim and half the Brussels sprouts.
- Soak them in water for 5-10 minutes in a mixing bowl.
- Drain the water and toss the sprouts with oil, salt, and pepper.

Notes
Expert Tips:
- Look for bright green Brussels sprouts that are firm to the touch and free of wilted leaves.
- Soak the Brussels sprouts in water for 5-10 minutes before putting them in the air fryer, resulting in sprouts with a tender, soft center. Soaking them also prevents the outsides from charring too quickly.
- To make crispy sprouts, don't overcrowd the basket. Work in batches if you need to cook more than one pound, as suggested in this recipe.
- For the crispiest Brussels sprouts, shake the basket halfway through. My air fryer gives me a helpful notification to remind me.
