Description

Discover how to make delicious Air Fryer Maple Glazed Brussel Sprouts with Pecans! Learn the perfect recipe for a crispy and flavorful side dish.


Ingredients

  • – 1.5 lb (680 g) Brussels Sprouts
  • – 2.5 tbsp (37 ml) olive oil
  • – 1 tsp (5 ml) coarse sea salt plus more to taste
  • – 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) garlic powder
  • – 1 tbsp (15 ml) maple syrup (keto or regular)
  • – 1.5 tbsp (22.5 ml) maple syrup (keto or regular)
  • – 2 tbsp (30 ml) lemon juice about half of one whole lemon


Instructions

  1. Remove the stem ends from the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Cut any particularly large ones into quarters.
  2. Wash and let them sit in cold water for 10 minutes to achieve a softer texture inside. Afterwards, ensure they are drained and dried using a clean kitchen towel.
  3. Set your air fryer to 400°F and let it preheat for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the sprouts with olive oil, sea salt, garlic powder, and a tablespoon of maple syrup.
  4. Place the Brussels sprouts in the air fryer basket, arranging them in an even layer. It’s fine if they slightly overlap. Cook them in the air fryer for a total of 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to promote even cooking.
  5. Prepare the maple lemon dressing in a small bowl.
  6. Move the Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and coat them with the maple lemon dressing. Taste and add more salt if necessary. Serve them warm.

Notes

  • Soak Brussels sprouts in cold water before cooking for a softer texture.
  • Shake air fryer basket halfway through cooking for even browning.
  • Adjust sea salt in maple lemon dressing to taste; add black pepper for extra kick.
