Sometimes all you need is one hot basket and a handful of basics. These Brussels sprouts turn deeply crisp on the outside, tender inside, and don’t require sauces, marinades, or extra prep.
They work as a fast side, a snack straight from the plate, or a last-minute add-on when dinner feels unfinished.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half.
- Place them in a bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
- Preheat the air fryer to 200°C / 400°F for 2 minutes.
- Spread the sprouts in a single layer in the basket, cut side facing down where possible.
- Cook for 12–15 minutes, shaking once halfway, until deeply golden and crisp at the edges.
- Taste and adjust salt if needed. Serve immediately while hot.
Tips (Minimal Effort Version)
If your air fryer basket is crowded, cook in two quick batches instead of lowering the temperature. Crowding steams the sprouts and steals the crunch.
