Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts trimmed & cut in half
- 2 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
- ¾ teaspoon salt more to taste
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- Optional Additions: toasted hazelnuts, crumbled bacon, crumbled turkey bacon, toasted almonds, crushed peanuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and grab a large rimmed baking sheet. TIP: for extra crispiness, roast on the sheet directly, and don’t use parchment paper!
- Make the glaze by mixing together the balsamic vinegar and maple syrup in a small bowl and set aside.
- Prepare the brussels sprouts by trimming the ends off and cutting them in half. Feel free to remove any leaves that are browned and wilted.
- In a medium mixing bowl, toss the brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until fully coated.
- Spread them across your large baking sheet in a single layer cut-side down. TIP: make sure they are cut side down to ensure super crispy brussels!
- Roast for 20 - 25 minutes.
- As soon as the brussel sprouts are done roasting, toss them immediately in the balsamic maple mixture. Mix them, so they are coasted on the baking sheet.
- Roast for 5 - 10 extra minutes until everything is tender, golden, and crispy.
- Sprinkle a dash of salt or chopped-up roasted almonds or hazelnuts on top. You can even add bacon crumbles. Enjoy!
Notes
- Maple Syrup: You can use honey instead of maple syrup. In this case, the recipe will no longer be vegan.
- Serve immediately. Crispy roasted brussels sprouts are best enjoyed right out of the oven or within 10 minutes. They will not be crispy if you store extras for later and reheat them in the microwave.
- Roast brussels sprouts directly on the baking sheet. For extra crispiness, roast the brussels directly on the baking sheet, and don’t use parchment paper.
- Roast them cut-side down. This ensures the insides don’t dry out from the heat as they roast, and the outside leaves get extra crispy.
- Roast them undisturbed – no mixing. Don’t store the Brussels halfway through! Let them roast cut-side down until you add the maple balsamic glaze.
- Storing: Balsamic maple roasted brussels sprouts are best enjoyed immediately out of the oven. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Read the reheating instructions below – do not microwave!
- Reheating: For best results, reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 5 – 10 minutes or in the oven or toaster oven at 350°F for 5 – 10 minutes until warm. DON’T MICROWAVE – they will be soggy.
