Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Sheet Pan
  • Sharp Knife

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Brussel Sprouts halved
  • 2-3 tablespoon Hot honey or 2-3 tablespoon honey mixed with 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes)
  • ¼ cup Olive oil or avocado oil
  • ½` teaspoon Garlic powder
  • Pomegranate seeds optional
  • Goat cheese optional

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 425º Fahrenheit.
  • Begin by slicing each brussel sprout in half, longways, so that the root stays intact. If necessary, trim off a small part of the root if it is too long or looks brown.
  • Set aside.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the hot honey (or honey with red pepper flakes), olive oil, and garlic powder in a bowl. Use a whisk to stir together until emulsified (should not be separated).
  • In a larger bowl, add the sliced brussel sprouts and and the hot honey mixture. Use your hands to combine thoroughly, until all of the brussel sprouts are coated.
  • Add the brussel sprouts to a sheet pan and place each one face down. This will create the crispiest texture.
  • Roast in the oven for 25-35 minutes or until crispy and cooked through.
  • Once done, remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with salt.
  • Serve warm and garnish with things like pomegranate seeds, goat or feta cheese, fresh herbs like mint, and/or more! Sprinkle with flaky salt if you have it.

Notes

  • Either buy pre-made hot honey, make your own using my Hot Honey Recipe, or just use honey and red pepper flakes together in this recipe!
  • For an even better shot at getting a nice crispy texture, place the sheet pan in the oven while it pre-heats. Just be careful while handling it.
  • Garnish with anything you like or nothing at all. I think a good cheese like goat, feta, or shaved parmesan, would be great along with fresh herbs (mint, parsely, chives), and something tart to break it up like pomegranate, apple, or lemon!
