Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

    Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged leaves. Cut the sprouts in half through the stem.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the Brussels sprouts will caramelize nicely.

  3. 3

    Toss with Olive Oil

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss until the sprouts are evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Roast the Brussels Sprouts

    Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are golden brown and tender.

  5. 5

    Add Honey and Balsamic Vinegar

    Once the Brussels sprouts are roasted, remove them from the oven and drizzle with honey and balsamic vinegar. Toss to combine.

  6. 6

    Add Almonds

    Sprinkle the sliced or slivered almonds over the Brussels sprouts and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to toast the almonds lightly.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm as a small plate dish.
