About this recipe
Method
40 min prep · 25 min cook
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Prepare the Brussels sprouts by washing them, trimming the ends, and cutting them in half. This helps them cook evenly and get nice and crispy.
Toss the sprouts. In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until they are well coated. Spread them out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, cut sides down.
Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender on the inside and crispy on the edges. Halfway through, give the pan a shake or use a spatula to turn the sprouts for even browning.
Glaze the sprouts. In the last 5 minutes of roasting, drizzle the balsamic vinegar and maple syrup over the Brussels sprouts, then return them to the oven to finish caramelizing.
Serve. Once done, transfer the Brussels sprouts to a serving dish. If desired, garnish with pomegranate seeds or crushed walnuts for an extra burst of flavor and texture.
Enjoy your Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts warm, as the perfect complement to any main course.
