Instructions

1
Place the trimmed and halved Brussels sprouts in a large microwave-safe bowl.

3
Remove from the microwave and season with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, crushed red pepper flakes, garlic salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat.
4
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they are cut-side down.

While the sprouts bake, take any loose leaves, toss them in the remaining seasoning mixture, and air fry for about 5 minutes until crispy.
