Crispy, caramelized sprouts tossed in a glossy maple-Dijon glaze, topped with buttery pecans that crunch like applause. This is the side dish that makes “I’ll just have one more” a full-time job.

  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • cup toasted pecans roughly chopped

  • Preheat air fryer to 380°F (193°C).
  • Toss Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Air fry 8–10 minutes, shaking halfway.
