Notes

  • Choose Fresh Sprouts: Look for Brussels sprouts that are firm, bright green, and free of wilted outer leaves. Fresh Brussels sprouts roast more evenly and have better flavor.
  • Don’t Skimp on Olive Oil: Plenty of olive oil is also a big key to getting Brussels sprouts beautifully crispy. Toss until every sprout is lightly coated!
  • Roast Cut Side Down: This is the secret step! Placing each sprout cut side down creates more contact with the hot sheet pan, which is what gives you that gorgeous, caramelized, crispy surface. It’s worth the extra minute. Trust me!
