    Why You’ll Love This Recipe

    • it’s so easy and quick to whip up as a healthy side dish
    • the way it stands is a great base recipe to add other fun ingredients to if you like, or it’s perfect just the way it is!

    Other ingredients you can add to brussels sprouts

    Additional optional ingredients for brussels sprouts that you can add to this recipe are:

    • bacon
    • balsamic vinegar
    • maple syrup
    • honey
    • cranberries
    • blue cheese crumbles
    • feta cheese crumbles

    Should you cut Brussel sprouts in half before roasting?

    You don’t have to but we prefer them to be sliced in half. They not only cook faster but the cut side will roast beautifully and crisp up much better.

    How do I roast Brussels sprouts?

    • Preheat oven to 425°.

    Gather your ingredients to make this basic brussels sprouts recipes:

    Ingredients:

    • brussels sprouts, sliced in half
    • olive oil
    • garlic powder
    • salt
    • pepper
    Ingredients for roasted brussels sprouts
    1. Place clean, sliced brussels sprouts in a large bowl (big enough to stir seasonings and oil to coat them) and pour oil on top.
    2. Add in the garlic powder.
    3. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top
    4. Stir to evenly coat the brussels with oil and spices.
    Step by step - season, oil, brussels sprouts

    Place seasoned brussel sprouts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

    Place brussels sprouts on parchment paper and baking pan for roasting

    Bake at 425° for 25-30 minutes, depending on the level of “crisp” you like for brussels.

    Serve right away or leave in the oven on “warm” until the rest of the dinner is ready!

    What to serve with brussels sprouts

    We love serving roasted brussels sprouts with our oven-baked steak recipe and our bbq baked pork steaks.

    Tips for Making This

    • You can cook brussels sprouts longer to reach more of a crispier texture if you prefer. We actually like them WELL DONE, more-so than what you see here in the photos. The brussels sprouts you see here and with this recipe below, only have a slight crisp or char. We prefer them cooked closer to a 30-minute mark, to give more “crunch” and char flavor.
    • If you plan to add additional ingredients (like from the list of ideas above) to your brussels sprouts, it may be best to either mix-in after the brussels sprouts have finished cooking or toward the end of the cooking process so those ingredients do not cook faster than the sprouts, and burn.
    • Some brussels sprouts can be very large in size. If this is the case, you may want to slice the halves, in half if they’re too big to eat with a fork.

      This is my favorite way to cook brussel sprouts! We love ours extra crispy and caramelized. Sometimes we add bacon. SO GOOD.

      These are delicious and I did cook them longer as you suggested for more of a char. Thanks for the great recipe.
