Tara’s Tips For Perfect Sweet and Spicy Air Fryer Brussels Sprouts
- Mix the sauce ingredients in a jar first, then pour them over the brussels sprouts, then gently stir everything together making sure each one is covered in the sauce.
- Use fresh brussels sprouts not frozen. The frozen ones just don’t work as well with these oil-free balsamic roasted brussels sprouts. You can use the frozen ones in Sun-Dried Tomato Brussels Sprouts.
- If you know me, you know I love love love spicy foods. Be careful with the sriracha! Start with only 2 tbsp if you are looking for a milder flavor. You can always add in extra at the end or on top.
- Store leftovers in a glass container for up to 3 days. To reheat, microwave them for 90 seconds. If you want to crisp them up again, toss them in your air fryer again for 5 minutes on 390 degrees. However, they are much better when fresh.
- Dip them! In Easy Vegan Ranch or Silken Tofu Vegan Ranch!
