    ingredients for maple brussel sprouts in bowls

    Key ingredients:

    • Brussel sprouts-Be sure to cut the end off of the brussel sprouts, then dice them in half. If the brussel sprouts are really big, cut them into fourths. 
    • Maple syrup-Make sure it is pure maple syrup. There are a lot of brands out there that have other additives in there. Make sure to get the good stuff!
    • Garlic powder-Minced, This goes so well with the maple syrup.
    • Avocado oil-The best oil for air frying because it has a smoke point of 500. I suggest staying away from olive oil when air frying because it has a really low smoke point. 

    step by step how to make air fried brussel sprouts

    How to make maple brussel sprouts:

    • First, cut off the white end of the brussel sprouts and cut them into fourths. 
    • Next, place the brussel sprouts, oil and minced garlic in the air fryer on 400 for 15 minutes. Then, mix around the brussel sprouts and put them back in the air fryer for 15 more minutes. 
    • Once the brussel sprouts are cooked, mix them in a bowl with maple syrup.

    Which kind of air fryer should I use?

    • I am obsessed with this ONE! I have had it for quite some time. Not only is it an air fryer but it also functions as an instant pot, crock pot, and dehydrator.

    • Paleo chicken tenders
