INGREDIENT NOTES

  • Brussel Sprouts – I highly recommend using fresh brussel sprouts, avoid frozen brussel sprouts at all costs.
  • Sweet Potatoes – Feel free to use one or two sweet potatoes, just make sure to peel and cut them into small cubes.
  • Dried Cranberries – Dried cherries work as well.
  • Walnuts – If you don’t have walnuts on hand, feel free to use pecans or the nuts of your choice.
  • Goat Cheese – Completely optional but adds great flavor! Gorgonzola cheese or blue cheese works too.
  • Honey – Optional but I like drizzling some honey onto the vegetables to add a touch of sweetness and enhance their caramelization.
  • Balsamic Vinegar – Balsamic glaze works too.

TOP RECIPE TIPS

  • Season the sweet potato cubes and brussel sprouts generously with salt and pepper for best results.
  • Don’t cover! Bake it uncovered.
  • Top it off with goat cheese and check for seasoning right before serving.
  • Feel free to include bacon or pancetta.

CAN I MAKE THIS IN THE AIR FYER?

Yes, absolutely. Preheat your air fryer to 380 degrees F and spray the basket with nonstick spray. Place the seasoned brussel sprouts and sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring at the 6-minute mark.

STORAGE

Allow any leftovers to cool completely then place them in an air-tight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat in the air fryer, oven, or microwave until heated through.
