Pro Tips for Best Results

  • Don’t Overcrowd: For the crispiest results, keep veggies in a mostly single layer so they roast instead of steam.

  • Dry Thoroughly: Pat your sprouts and tomatoes dry after washing; moisture prevents that perfect golden char.

  • The “Shake” is Key: Shaking the basket redistributes the oil and ensures every piece gets hit by the hot air.

  • Finish with Fresh Lime: An extra squeeze of fresh lime right before serving makes the flavors pop.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen Brussels sprouts? You can, but they won’t be as crispy. Cook them from frozen (do not thaw) and add 5 minutes to the timer.

How do I prevent soggy mushrooms? High heat (380°F) and avoiding a crowded basket are the best ways to ensure mushrooms brown beautifully.

Can I make this in a traditional oven? Yes! Roast on a parchment-lined sheet pan at 400°F for 25.0 to 30.0 minutes, tossing once.
