Air fryer brussels sprouts seasoned to perfection with Parmesan cheese and ranch seasonings. Crispy on the outside, tender and delicious on the inside.
Your air fryer is the perfect appliance for making so many delicious foods. With this recipe, we’re not actually making “fried” Brussels sprouts, but rather using the air fryer in place of a standard oven to make “roasted” Brussels sprouts. Have you had roasted Brussels sprouts before? If not, you’ve in for an amazing treat!
Why Make Air Fryer Brussels Sprouts?
Brussels sprouts are a cruciferous vegetable that are in the same family of vegetables that includes broccoli and cabbage. Specifically they are a member of the Gemmifera Group of cabbage and are know for their edible buds. Brussels sprouts can be cooked a number of different ways, but by far, they are at their best when they are roasted. The flavors brought on from roasting can be described as savory, slightly nutty, and even a tad sweet – especially the smaller sized sprouts.
空气煎炸的过程不是将食物浸泡在油中,而是利用快速流动的热量在食物周围循环,从而烹饪食物并创造出脆脆的外层。对于我们的空气炸锅球芽甘蓝,我们没有给它裹上面包屑,而是涂上少量植物油、帕尔马干酪、干牧场调味料、盐和胡椒粉。就是这样!然后只需12分钟,你就能完美地“烤”出球芽甘蓝,只需要标准烤箱一小部分的时间。
How to Choose Brussels Sprouts
Picking out the right Brussels sprouts is actually quite easy. Most often, Brussels sprouts are found loose, or already removed from the stalk, in most produce stores or supermarkets. They vary in size and can be as small as 1 inch in diameter, to as large as almost 3 inches in diameter – or about the size of an egg! The best Brussels sprouts are generally medium in size, have a good, compact and tight inner leaf, no brown or yellow leaves, and may feel slightly heavy for their size. The most important factor when cooking air fryer Brussels sprouts is to select sprouts that are all similar in size. You do not want a mixture of small and large. So take a moment and select the ones that are similar in size to ensure even cooking and and best results.
medium sized Brussels sprouts cleaned and trimmed and ready to prepare for cooking in an air fryer.
How to Prepare Brussels Sprouts for Cooking
准备煮球芽甘蓝再简单不过了。清洗球芽甘蓝的任何污垢或碎片,并彻底干燥。用一把小刀尽可能多地切掉茎干。如果你买的球芽甘蓝比较松散,茎可能很少,但你仍然应该根据需要修剪。清除任何疏松的,小的或损坏的外部叶子。在这个食谱中,我们要把球芽甘蓝纵向切成两半。
How to Make Air Fryer Brussels Sprouts
Making Brussels sprouts in your air fryer couldn’t be easier! We start with 1lb of fresh, cleaned and trimmed medium sized Brussels sprouts. We cut them in half lengthwise and place them in a bowl. Next we add 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil and toss the sprouts so they are all evenly coated. Next, we mix together the dry ranch seasoning, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper and toss it in with the sprouts. Use your hands and make sure the Brussels are all evenly coated with all the mixture.
We then place the coated Brussels sprouts into our air fryer basket or tray, close it up, and air fry at 350 degrees for 12 minutes. Check on them every few minutes and give them a good toss in the basket, or flip halfway through if using a tray style air fryer.
When done, remove from the air fryer onto a serving plate and coat with any additional salt, pepper or Parmesan cheese to desired taste.

OMG! These were the BEST Sprouts ever! I usually roast them with garlic & olive oil, but I followed this recipe and it was FABULOUS. The sprouts were nice & crispy, and the Ranch seasoning wasn’t too strong. Loved it! I think I’ll use this method from now on! I love the crispyness!!

I’m not a big Brussels sprout fan so I was wondering if I could use this seasoning recipe on broccoli? Btw, I saw this recipe on “Mandy in the Making”on YT and her son loves this recipe.

Hi Lisa,
You sure can! Go with 380°(F) for about 8-10 minutes.
