Ingredients

Crispy Brussels sprouts

Toasted baguette

Finishing & assembly

Preparation

Crispy Brussels sprouts

1. Prep

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat with oil.

2. Trim & halve

Trim the stem ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any loose outer leaves. Cut each sprout in half lengthwise. For very large sprouts, quarter them so pieces are roughly uniform in size.

3. Season

In a large bowl, toss the halved sprouts with 2 tbs olive oil, 1 tsp kosher salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes until evenly coated.

4. Arrange

Spread the sprouts cut-side down in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between pieces for browning. Overcrowding will steam them instead of crisping.

5. Roast

Roast for 18–22 minutes, until the cut sides are deeply golden-brown and the outer leaves are crispy. Halfway through (at ~10 minutes), shake the pan or turn larger pieces with a spatula to promote even browning.

Toasted baguette

6. Prepare baguette

While sprouts roast, slice the baguette on a diagonal into 12–14 slices about 1/2-inch thick.

7. Butter & garlic

Mix the 2 tbs softened butter with 1 tsp olive oil. Spread a thin layer on each baguette slice. If desired, rub the cut side of a garlic clove lightly across each slice for a subtle garlic flavor.

8. Toast

Arrange slices on a separate baking sheet and toast in the oven for the last 6–8 minutes of the sprouts' roast time, until edges are golden and butter is melted. Alternatively, broil 2–3 minutes watching closely to avoid burning.

Finishing & assembly

9. Finish sprouts

When the sprouts are done, remove them from the oven and transfer to a serving bowl. Zest and then squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the hot sprouts and drizzle with 1 tsp honey; toss gently to combine and adjust salt to taste.

10. Assemble crostini

Spread or dollop about 1 tsp of goat cheese onto each toasted baguette slice (reserve some goat cheese for topping if you prefer larger dollops). Top each slice with 2–3 warm crispy Brussels sprout halves.

11. Garnish & serve

Finish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley (optional) and an extra grind of black pepper. Serve immediately so the sprouts remain crispy and the crostini are warm.
