FAQs
Can I prepare Brussels sprouts ahead of time?
Yes, you can trim and cut the Brussels sprouts a day in advance and store them in the refrigerator. Just wait to toss them with the sauce and bake until ready to serve.
How do I make sure the Brussels sprouts turn out crispy?
Make sure to spread the sprouts in a single layer with space between pieces and bake at a high temperature. Broiling for a couple of minutes at the end helps achieve extra crispiness.

Ingredients
Brussels Sprouts
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts, washed, trimmed, and halved
Seasoning and Glaze
- 3 Tbsp olive oil (or other neutral oil)
- 1 Tbsp coconut aminos (or balsamic vinegar)
- 1 Tbsp honey (or agave or maple syrup)
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Prepare the Brussels Sprouts: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Wash the Brussels sprouts thoroughly, trim off any rough stems, and cut each sprout in half. Set them aside.
- Mix the Glaze: In a small cup or bowl, combine the olive oil, coconut aminos, honey, sea salt, and garlic powder. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- Coat the Sprouts: Place the halved Brussels sprouts into a large mixing bowl. Pour the honey and oil mixture over them and toss thoroughly until every sprout is well coated.
- Arrange for Roasting: Spread the coated Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer with the cut side down. Ensure there’s enough space between each sprout to allow even roasting and crispiness.
- Roast the Brussels Sprouts: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast for 16 to 18 minutes, flipping the pan halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning on all sides.
- Crisp under Broiler: After roasting, shake the pan gently to loosen the sprouts. Turn on the broiler and broil the Brussels sprouts for 1 to 2 minutes until they reach an extra crispy texture. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
