Mix brussels sprouts in bowl with olive oil, salt and pepper.

Toss brussels sprouts with honey and balsamic vinegar immediately before serving.

Even Coating: Ensure that the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated with olive oil, salt, and pepper for uniform seasoning and browning. Toss the Brussels sprouts thoroughly in a bowl to distribute the oil and seasonings evenly before transferring them to the air fryer basket. This ensures that each Brussels sprout receives a balanced amount of flavor.
Proper Air Frying Technique: To achieve crispy and caramelized Brussels sprouts, preheat your air fryer to 400º Fahrenheit before adding the Brussels sprouts to the basket. Cook them for 8–10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to promote even cooking and browning. Keep an eye on them towards the end of the cooking process to prevent burning.
Finishing Touch: Add a delightful sweet and tangy flavor to the Brussels sprouts by tossing them with honey and balsamic vinegar immediately before serving. The honey adds sweetness, while the balsamic vinegar provides a rich and acidic contrast. This step not only enhances the flavor but also adds a glossy finish to the Brussels sprouts, making them visually appealing. Serve the Brussels sprouts hot as a delicious and nutritious side dish.
