    How To Make Roasted Brussels Sprouts With Balsamic Glaze

    Keep scrolling for the full recipe. We’ll start here with a quick rundown!

    • Preheat oven to 400°F.
    • Cut stems off brussels sprouts and then cut in half. Remove outer leaves, rinse and dry!
    • Transfer halved sprouts to a large baking pan. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir with your hands (or a spoon) until coated.
    • Bake for 20-25 minutes.
    • While sprouts bake, make your glaze. Measure balsamic vinegar and maple syrup into a small sauce pan. Place on medium heat.
    • Bring mixture to a boil, then turn heat to low. Simmer 15-20 minutes stirring occasionally.
    • Reduce liquid by about half. Once it coats a spoon and/or bottom of the pan, it is done.
    • Remove from heat and cool for 15 minutes (glaze will thicken a little more as it cools).
    • Remove sprouts and toss in pecans. Drizzle with glaze and enjoy!

    Handy Tips

    • Roasted pecans: I like to buy pre-roasted pecans from the store (packaging will specify). You can also roast your own pecans if you've only got raw. Spread nuts on a large baking sheet and roast at 375°F. for 2-3 minutes. Shake the pan (or stir nuts) about halfway through for even toasting. Keep a close eye on the oven, this process won't take long and you want to avoid burning. Allow the pecans to cool and then roughly chop.
    • Hot honey brussels sprouts: Instead of making a balsamic maple reduction, you can also drizzle your roasted brussels sprouts in homemade hot honey for another delicious variation!

    How Long To Roast Brussels Sprouts

    At 400°F you'll want to roast your sprouts for 20-25 minutes. I usually start with 20 minutes and then check to see if they're browning. If I want a little more color and crisp, I let them go about 5 minutes longer!

    Ingredients

    • 2 lbs. brussels sprouts
    • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    • Pinch of salt
    • Pinch of pepper
    • ½ cup balsamic vinegar
    • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
    • ¼ cup toasted pecans *roughly chopped

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 400°F.
    • Cut the stems off of sprouts and then halve. Remove outer leaves, rinse and dry!
    • Transfer brussels sprouts to a large baking sheet. (*Tip: using a large baking sheet is important because it will prevent crowding. Sprouts won't roast or brown as quickly if they are too close together. I use a 17 x 11 inch baking sheet).
    • Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir with your hands (or a spoon) until coated. Spread evenly on the baking sheet.
    • Bake for 20-25 minutes.
    • While sprouts bake, make your glaze. Measure balsamic vinegar and maple syrup into a small sauce pan. Place on medium heat.
    • Bring mixture to a boil, then turn heat to low. Simmer 15-20 minutes stirring occasionally.
    • Once liquid has reduced by about half and it coats a spoon and/or bottom of the pan, it is done. Remove from heat and cool for 15 minutes (glaze will thicken a little more as it cools).
    • Remove sprouts from the oven and toss in chopped pecans. Drizzle with glaze and enjoy!
