Miso Roasted Brussels Sprouts
These roasted Brussels sprouts are coated in a savory miso glaze that caramelizes during roasting to create a balanced sweet and umami flavor. The sprouts are halved and first roasted with oil, salt, and pepper to develop a browned, tender texture before being tossed with a miso-maple glaze and roasted again. This method yields crispy edges with a glossy, flavorful coating that complements the mild bitterness of the sprouts.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil, divided use
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons White miso paste or yellow miso paste
- 1 ½ tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce low sodium or tamari (if gluten free
- ½ teaspoon sriracha optional, or chili flakes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Cut the brown stems off the Brussels sprouts and pull off any yellow outer leaves. Cut them in half lengthwise.
- Toss the Brussels sprouts with 1 tablespoon oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange them on a sheet pan in a single layer. Roast in the oven for 15 minutes until the sprouts are browned and tender. Remove from oven.
- While the sprouts are roasting, make the miso glaze. Mix 1 tablespoon oil, miso paste, maple syrup, vinegar, soy sauce, and Sriracha together in a large bowl. Reserve about a tablespoon of the glaze to toss with the sprouts at the end. Pour the remaining glaze onto the Brussels on the sheet pan and toss to combine well.
- Return the Brussels sprouts to the oven and cook another 5-10 minutes until caramelized. Stir them once or twice during cooking and watch them to make sure they don't burn.
- Remove the sheet pan from the oven and transfer the sprouts to a serving bowl. Toss with the reserved miso glaze. Serve warm.
