What is an Air Fryer?

Air Fryers are a countertop appliance similar to a convection oven in that it circulates hot air to cook food. This process produces a crispy product without the added oil or extra calories of deep fat frying. It cooks at a high speed so it cooks faster than a convection or regular oven as well. It’s compact and won’t heat your whole kitchen either. It won’t sacrifice flavor even though it slashes fat and calories. It’s a total win.

Making Brussels Sprouts in the Air Fryer

Benefits of Brussels Sprouts

Brussels sprouts are part of the vegetable family that includes broccoli and cabbage, a cruciferous veggie. I personally love that they look like mini cabbage heads, they’re kinda cute. They are a super power house food with their high contents of vitamin C, and K and other minerals. They are best known for the high antioxidant compounds. Antioxidants reduce the oxidative stress in your cells and helps lower your risk of chronic disease. So grab a bag of brussel sprouts and eat up to your health!The flavors brought on from roasting can be described as savory, slightly nutty, and even a tad sweet – especially the smaller sized sprouts.

Tips and Variations for the Best Air Fried Vegetables

Seasoning: You can change up the seasoning for whatever your craving. Try cajun, mexican, spicy, or indian inspired spices to change up the flavor. It’s so versatile and easy to do. Don’t Crowd: The best tip for any food coming out perfectly from your air fryer is to make sure they have space around them, don’t over crowd, if you need to work in batches. Double: This is super easy to double for a crowd, again just work in batches. Toss: After cooking you can toss with more cheese if you desire Bread Crumbs: Panko or breadcrumbs work well in this recipe. You can ramp up the flavor with seasoned bread crumbs too. Storing: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the air fryer for 1-2 min, just till heated through, to restore their crispiness. It won’t be exactly the same but it should help.

Normally, I am a fussy cook and I want the real product. The taste on it’s own or thrown into a soup, sauce or salad was great. If I was serving to a food critic maybe I would break the bank.
