Put cut brussels sprouts to bowl. Drizzle oil and balsamic vinegar evenly over the brussels sprouts. Don’t dump the oil and vinegar in one spot or else it will just coat one brussels sprout. You want to make sure to coat all the brussels sprouts.
Sprinkle salt and pepper evenly over the brussels sprouts. Stir to combine everything and long enough so that all the brussels sprouts soaks up the marinade. There shouldn’t be any marinade left in the bottom of the bowl.
Add brussels to the air fryer basket. Air fry at 360°F for about 15 to 20 minutes. Shake and gently stir half way through, about 8 minutes into cooking. Make sure you shake at the halfway mark! You don’t want to end up with uneven cooking. If needed, shake and toss a 3rd time to make sure it all cooks evenly.
Continue to air fry the brussels for the remainder of the time, or until the brussels are golden brown and cooked through. You can check earlier if needed to make sure nothing burns. Or you can add more time if needed to make sure it’s cooked through.
Add additional salt and pepper if needed on the brussels sprouts and enjoy!
*I cooked 8 oz. of very small brussel sprouts, so did 360° for 8 minutes. Shook the basket and cooked for 4 more minutes. Added them to our plates and drizzled with Nonna Pia's Balsamic Glaze. They were perfect!*

Notes from Gary Mattson: "I cut the ends off the sprouts and cut them in half lengthwise. Add sprouts, olive oil, salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar to bowl and toss until everything is coated. Air fry, shaking basket several times during cooking, and plate when done. Then drizzle balsamic glaze on sprouts before eating."  Notes from Gary Mattson: "I cut the ends off the sprouts and cut them in half lengthwise.

Don’t crowd the basket. If needed, it’s better to cook in multiple smaller batches for even cooking, than it is to cook in one large batch. If cooking in multiple batches, the first batch will take longer to cook if Air Fryer is not already pre-heated.  Don’t crowd the basket.

If you decide to double the recipe, it will work great but make sure your air fryer is large enough (this recipe was cooked in a 3.7 qt. air fryer). You might need to add an additional 1-2 minutes of cooking time and give an extra shake or two while cooking if the basket is fairly full.  If you decide to double the recipe, it will work great but make sure your air fryer is large enough (this recipe was cooked in a 3.7 qt. air fryer).
