Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Combine the Brussels sprouts, onion, olive oil, maple syrup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Toss to mix and coat. 
  • Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees for 3-5 minutes. Add the Brussels sprouts mixture to the air fryer basket. Cook for 12-18 minutes or until tender with crispy edges; shake the basket several times. Cooking times will vary depending on your air fryer and the size of your Brussels sprouts.
  • Sprinkle with more kosher salt and black pepper to taste. For best results, serve promptly. 

Notes

  • Select Brussels sprouts of uniform size so they cook at the same rate and time.
  • Every air fryer cooks at a different pace, so check on them frequently and shake the basket when you do.
  • If you have a small air fryer, work in two batches so as not to crowd it. Keep the first batch in the oven warm while you cook the second batch.
  • Honey can be substituted for the maple syrup.
  • For a change of taste, drizzle with balsamic glaze, balsamic vinegar, or soy sauce. Or top with freshly grated Parmesan Cheese, crisp bacon crumbles, or red pepper flakes.
