Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or your air fryer to 380°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil until evenly coated.
- In a separate small bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper.
- Add the seasoned Brussels sprouts to the Parmesan mixture and toss until they are well coated.
- For oven baking: Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and crispy, flipping halfway through.
- For air frying: Place the Brussels sprouts in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until tender and crispy.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of garlic powder or red pepper flakes to the coating mixture.
- If you don’t have breadcrumbs, you can pulse a slice of stale bread in a food processor until crumbly.
- Ensure the Brussels sprouts are dry before tossing with oil and coating for maximum crispiness.
