Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 0.5 cups Dried cranberries
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- 0.25 cups Chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and trim the Brussels sprouts, removing any yellow or damaged leaves, and slice each sprout in half lengthwise.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, flipping the sprouts halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, in a small bowl, mix the honey and balsamic vinegar until well combined.
After 20 minutes, remove the sprouts from the oven, drizzle them with the honey-balsamic mixture, and sprinkle the dried cranberries over the top.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
If using chopped pecans, toast them in a small dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until fragrant, and then sprinkle them over the finished dish.
Serve immediately as a warm, sweet, and tangy side dish perfect for any meal.
