Growing up, there was nothing I despised more than brussels sprouts. I mean what kid likes brussels sprouts? However, as you probably know, brussels sprouts are high in nutritional value. According to an article written by Dr. Barbie Cervoni, one cup of brussels sprouts contains 24% of your daily recommended amount of Vitamin A, 4.1 grams of fiber, and is only 56 calories! Talk about a superfood. This crispy brussels sprouts recipe solves the problem of taste, so now eating brussels sprouts is a win-win!

CRISPY AIR FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS INGREDIENTS:

This recipe is so simple it only requires three ingredients…

• 1/2 lb Fresh Brussels Sprouts: I recommend trying to purchase brussels sprouts from a local farmer’s market. It’s always nice to give business to small farmers right in your hometown and the freshness is superior.
• 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil: Any brand of olive oil will get the job done, but to make this recipe even more nutritious try Sky Organics Organic First Greek Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Remember: Little choices, like swapping out one olive oil for another, can make a big difference in our long-term health!
• Salt to taste: Again, any salt will do, but if you want to add some adventure into this recipe try using Himalayan Pink Salt. Despite, its beautiful color Himalayan Pink Salt tastes exactly like regular salt. One difference is that Himalayan Pink Salt is lower in sodium than ordinary salt making it slightly better for you.
• Air Fryer: If you don’t already have one, you will, of course, need an air fryer. I recommend this Power 6-Quart AirFryer Oven because it offers many more capabilities than the ordinary air fryer.

HOW TO MAKE AIR FRIED CRISPY BRUSSELS SPROUTS:

1. Prep the brussels sprouts. First, wash the brussels sprouts by rinsing in cool water. I recommend using a colander. Trim the ends of the brussels sprouts if needed. If the brussels sprouts are not already cut in half you will need to use a sharp chef’s knife in order to do so. Make sure to use a cutting board, so you don’t damage your countertop.

2. Toss with olive oil and salt. Put the brussels sprouts in a medium-sized bowl. Then, add the olive oil and salt. Toss the ingredients using whatever utensils you have on hand just like a tossed salad. Make sure that the brussels sprouts are evenly covered with the oil and salt.

3. Fry. First, set your air fryer to 350° F. Then, place the brussels sprouts into the air fryer evenly. Let cook for 4-6 minutes.

4. Flip. Take the brussels sprouts out and give them a toss. This is to ensure they cook evenly. Then, place them back in the air fryer for another 4-6 minutes.

5. Enjoy. Remove the brussels sprouts from the air fryer. Make sure to let them cool, and then enjoy eating your delicious crispy brussels sprouts!
