Additional recipe notes

Don’t crowd the Air Fryer basket: This recipe uses a pound of Brussels sprouts, perfect for a 6 qt. Model. For smaller models, cook in batches, avoiding overcrowding for crispy results. Air-fried foods require a single layer for optimal airflow. Monitor Cooking Time: Varying factors like the size of the Brussels sprouts and air fryer temperature may require adjusted cooking times. Panko Alternatives: Regular breadcrumbs or panko breadcrumbs work just as well. Flavor Boost: Add balsamic vinegar and maple syrup drizzle for a sweet-tangy finish. It’s delicious!

Storage & reheating safety

For cooked, perishable leftovers, refrigerate within 2 hours (1 hour above 90°F), using shallow containers for prompt cooling. Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below, use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days, and reheat hot leftovers to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer. Follow any shorter package limit.

These are general safety limits, not a tested storage or freezing recommendation for this particular dish. USDA leftovers guidance · Safe cooking temperatures
