Ingredients
- 2 pounds Brussels sprouts 900g
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon each salt and black pepper
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons goat cheese crumbled
- 2 tablespoons dried cranberries
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Trim the Brussels sprouts and cut larger ones in half, then place them into a bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
- Spread the Brussels sprouts onto a baking sheet in a single layer and bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until golden on the edges and cooked through, stirring occassionally. Smaller sprouts will need less time.
- Meanwhile, add the walnuts to a dry frying pan over a medium heat and toast, stirring often, for a few minutes or until golden and fragrant.
- Stir the balsamic vinegar and honey together in a small bowl and pour them over the pan of roasted brussels sprouts, stirring to coat. Return to the oven for a further 3-5 minutes to caramelize slightly.
- Serve topped with the toasted walnuts, dried cranberries and crumbled goat cheese.

Notes
- Be sure to trim away any wilted or brown leaves from your sprouts.
- If you like it sweeter, add more honey.
- Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a different sweet taste.
- If some brussels sprouts are larger, cut them in half through the base so they all cook evenly.
- Swap the goat cheese for a different type. Try Roquefort, blue cheese, camembert, brie or even cubes of cheddar.
- Swap the walnuts for a different type of nuts: pecans, almonds, pistachios, macadamia, cashews, hazelnuts etc...
