Ingredients
Scale
Brussels Sprouts
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
Glaze
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
- Preparation: Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. This ensures even cooking and helps the glaze coat each piece thoroughly.
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to get it ready for roasting the Brussels sprouts to a golden, caramelized finish.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts with honey, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated with the glaze.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet, making sure there’s enough space for proper roasting and caramelization.
- Roasting: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20 to 25 minutes. Stir or toss the Brussels sprouts halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and prevent sticking.
- Serving: Once roasted to a golden brown and caramelized texture, serve the Brussels sprouts warm. Optionally, drizzle a little extra honey on top for enhanced sweetness.
Notes
- Make sure to stir the Brussels sprouts halfway through roasting to achieve even caramelization on all sides.
- If you prefer a more intense balsamic flavor, you can slightly reduce the amount of honey used.
- For extra crispiness, use a high-sided rimmed baking sheet to avoid overcrowding and steam buildup.
- These Brussels sprouts pair excellently with roasted meats or as part of a vegetarian meal.
