Description
Make crispy Brussels sprouts coated in a simple, sweet, and tangy glaze made from orange juice and maple syrup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tbsp fresh orange juice
- 1 tsp orange zest
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast for 15 minutes.
- While the sprouts roast, whisk together the maple syrup, orange juice, and orange zest in a small bowl to make the glaze.
- Remove the sprouts from the oven. Drizzle half of the glaze mixture over the sprouts and toss gently on the pan.
- Return the sprouts to the oven and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
- Remove from the oven and immediately drizzle with the remaining glaze. Serve warm.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, ensure your sprouts are dry before tossing them with oil.
- If you prefer a tangier flavor, add 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard to the glaze mixture.
- These pair well with roasted chicken or pork tenderloin.
