Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with a bit of olive oil.
Rinse the Brussels sprouts under cold water, pat them dry, and trim the stems. Slice each sprout in half lengthwise to create smaller, even pieces.
In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down for maximum caramelization.
Roast the sprouts in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until they are tender and have crispy, golden-brown edges. Stir them halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the honey until fully combined, then remove from heat.
When the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, transfer them to a serving bowl. Drizzle the honey-butter glaze over the top and gently toss to coat.
Serve the kid-friendly Brussels sprouts immediately while warm. Enjoy their crispy texture and sweet, buttery flavor!
