Maple Balsamic Oven Roasted Brussel Sprouts

Sharon Palmer RD

Who doesn’t love roasted brussel sprouts? These cruciferous veggies have gone from hated to adored over the past few years. And the chief reason is the discovery that these petit choux (small cabbages) roast up so nicely, as their flavor caramelizes, color browns, and texture crisper. This easy winter oven roasted brussel sprouts recipe calls upon maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, cranberries, hazelnuts, red onions, and rosemary to really bring on the flavor. This completely vegan, gluten free Maple Balsamic Oven Roasted Brussel Sprouts will be one of your favorite dishes for a comforting home-cooked meal, potluck recipe, or holiday side-dish…I promise!

How to roast brussel sprouts? It’s easy! Just trim the brussels and slice in half. Arrange on a baking sheet along with red onion slices, hazelnuts, and cranberries. Then create a flavorful marinade out of olive oil, maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, and seasonings. Drizzle it over the brussel sprouts, toss to combine, then roast in the top rack of an oven at 375 for 30-35 minutes. Yum!
