https://fryit.co/bacon-wrapped-brussels-sprouts-air-fryer-recipe/
This Bacon Wrapped Brussels Sprouts Air Fryer recipe is the best-tasting Brussels sprouts dish ever. I couldn't stop munching on it😋. Fry it, to believe it!
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts
  • 15 slices bacon
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat: Preheat your air fryer to 380ºF (193ºC) for 5 minutes.
  • Trim the stem end of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Splitting these small vegetables in half will allow them to absorb the seasoning we will add next. In addition, it will also cook at the same rate as the bacon.

Notes

  • If your air fryer doesn't have a preheat mode, you can simply set the temperature to 400ºF (204ºC) and then let it cook for 5 minutes.
  • You can skip preheating by adding 2-5 minutes to your cooking time. Increment gradually to prevent overcooking.
  • Cutting Brussels sprouts in half allows for even cooking and absorbs more flavor.
  • Slicing is unnecessary if you bought small Brussels sprouts for this recipe. It's going to shrink anyway.
  • Use thin-sliced bacon. It's easier to wrap around the halved Brussels sprouts and have the same cooking time. You can even make it crispy!
  • If your bacon keeps falling off the Brussels sprouts, use a toothpick to secure it.
    You can keep the toothpick on if you want to make a lollipop version of this low-carb appetizer.
  • Ranch dip is a good match for the Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Brussels Sprouts.
  • I used a 6-quart air fryer to test this recipe. Cooking time may vary depending on your air fryer and the number of servings you are making. For optimal results, begin with the lower end of the suggested cooking time. Continue air frying until you achieve your desired finish.
