Ingredients
Brussels Sprouts
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, halved
Marinade
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Garnish
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (use less if using dried thyme)
Instructions
- Preheat the Air Fryer. Preheat your air fryer to 370 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure an even cooking temperature for crispy Brussels sprouts.
- Prepare the Marinade. In a medium bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to create a flavorful marinade.
- Marinate the Brussels Sprouts. Add the halved Brussels sprouts to the marinade and toss well until they are evenly coated with the mixture, allowing the flavors to soak in.
- Cook in Air Fryer. Place the marinated Brussels sprouts into the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even roasting and achieve a crisp, caramelized texture.
- Garnish and Serve. Once cooked, sprinkle fresh thyme over the hot Brussels sprouts and serve immediately for a fragrant and flavorful side dish.
Notes
- Halve the Brussels sprouts evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
- Shake the air fryer basket halfway through cooking to prevent burning and promote even crisping.
- Adjust the amount of thyme based on your preference; dried thyme can be used but reduce quantity.
- Serve immediately for best texture; leftover Brussels sprouts may lose crispness.
- For extra crispiness, do not overcrowd the air fryer basket.
