Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz (454 g) Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) ghee, melted
  • 0.5 cup (120 ml) coconut cream
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) chives, chopped for garnish
  • Use a silicone air fryer liner or a small baking dish to prevent the creamy sauce from dripping through the basket.
  • For the richest texture, use full-fat, canned coconut cream. If the can has separated, stir it until smooth before measuring.
  • Pause the air fryer halfway through cooking to shake the basket. This helps the sprouts brown evenly on all sides.
  • To prevent the minced garlic from burning, ensure it is thoroughly mixed into the coconut cream and ghee sauce before cooking.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. In a large bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts, salt, pepper, melted ghee, coconut cream, and minced garlic.
  3. Toss well until the sprouts are evenly coated.
  4. Transfer the coated sprouts to an air fryer basket lined with a silicone liner or a small, heat-safe dish to contain the sauce.
  5. Air fry at 370°F / 188°C for 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the sprouts are tender and golden brown.
  6. Carefully remove the sprouts from the air fryer, garnish with fresh chives, and serve immediately.
  7. Cut larger sprouts into quarters and smaller ones in half to ensure they all cook evenly and at the same rate.
