Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts, fresh, halved, and trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Trim off the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any damaged outer leaves. Slice each sprout in half lengthwise.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, honey, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly coated.
- Arrange the sprouts in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Ensure they’re spaced out for even roasting.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping the sprouts halfway through. They’re done when they’re golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Remove from the oven and drizzle with a little extra balsamic vinegar for added flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!
