Ingredients
Scale
Brussels Sprouts
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Honey Balsamic Glaze
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare sprouts: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Toss the sprouts in olive oil, salt, and pepper to coat evenly.
- Roast the Brussels sprouts: Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, shaking the pan or stirring halfway through until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Make the honey balsamic glaze: While the sprouts roast, combine honey and balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture slightly thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Glaze and serve: When the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, transfer them to a serving bowl and drizzle with the warm honey balsamic glaze. Toss gently to coat all sprouts evenly before serving.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, use a high smoke point olive oil or avocado oil.
- Adjust the amount of honey according to your preferred sweetness level.
- Roast sprouts cut side down for maximum caramelization.
- This recipe can be doubled easily for larger servings.
