Description

Golden roasted Brussels sprouts tossed in a sweet-tangy homemade balsamic glaze for a crisp, flavorful side dish.

Ingredients

Scale

1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon pure maple syrup

2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)

1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Rinse and trim Brussels sprouts, then halve larger ones for even cooking.

3. In a bowl, toss sprouts with olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar.

4. Spread sprouts cut side down on the prepared sheet and roast for 20 minutes.

5. Flip sprouts and roast for another 5 minutes, adding garlic halfway through if using.

6. While sprouts roast, simmer 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar and maple syrup in a saucepan over medium heat for 8 to 12 minutes until thickened.

7. Remove glaze from heat once it coats the back of a spoon and let it cool slightly.

8. Transfer roasted sprouts to a serving bowl and drizzle with warm balsamic glaze.

9. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan if desired and serve immediately.
