Ingredients

2 lb brussels sprouts (trimmed and halved)
4 tsp olive oil (extra virgin)
1 tsp salt
2 tsp smoked paprika
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tbsp chili garlic sauce
2 tbsp maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
4 tbsp coconut aminos
1/2 tbsp giner (fresh, minced)
4 tsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp water
peanuts (chopped, optional. You can also use cashews, sesame seeds, etc.)

Instructions

1
Preheat your air fryer at 400°F for five minutes while you prep your brussels. Season the brussels with the sesame seed oil, olive oil, and spices. I separated mine into two separate batches to not overcrowd my air fryer basket.
2
Air fry at 400°F for 30 minutes, tossing half way through, or until your desired doneness. I like mine to be super crispy on the outside.
3
In the meantime, make your sauce. Whisk together all ingredients in a large bowl. When your Brussels are done, toss them in the sauce and immediately dig in!
