1. Can I make Crispy Roasted Brussels Sprouts in advance?

Yes! You can prepare the Brussels sprouts ahead of time by washing, trimming, and cutting them. Store the prepped sprouts in an airtight container in the fridge until you're ready to roast them. This helps save time, especially for busy weeknights or large gatherings.

2. Can I use frozen Brussels sprouts for this recipe?

For the best results, it’s recommended to use fresh Brussels sprouts. Frozen Brussels sprouts tend to release more moisture, which can affect their crispiness. However, if you must use frozen sprouts, make sure to thaw and pat them dry thoroughly before roasting to reduce excess moisture.

3. How do I get my Brussels sprouts extra crispy?

To achieve maximum crispiness, make sure the Brussels sprouts are spread out evenly on the baking sheet with enough space between them. Toss them well in the oil mixture, and bake at a high temperature (450°F) to encourage browning. For that final crisp, broil the sprouts for 1-2 minutes.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).
Wash, trim, and cut the Brussels sprouts in half.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, coconut aminos, honey, sea salt, and garlic powder until smooth.
Place the Brussels sprouts in a large bowl and pour the glaze over them. Toss to coat evenly.
Spread the Brussels sprouts cut-side down on a baking sheet, leaving space between each one.
Bake for 16-18 minutes, flipping the pan halfway through for even browning.
Shake the pan to loosen any stuck Brussels sprouts and broil for 1-2 minutes until crispy.
Remove the Brussels sprouts from the oven immediately and serve while hot.

Notes

Make sure to use fresh, firm Brussels sprouts for the best texture.
Do not overcrowd the baking sheet to ensure crispy Brussels sprouts.
If you prefer a vegan version, replace honey with maple syrup or agave.
Store leftover Brussels sprouts in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore crispiness.
