A ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS RECIPE YOUR FAMILY WILL LOVE
I dedicate this Roasted Brussels Sprouts recipe to anyone that is convinced of hating the little cabbage-like vegetable. Once you taste this dish, you’ll convert to a brussels sprouts lover, just like me.
This recipe is from my uncle. He is the one that changed my mind about brussels sprouts by roasting them in the oven and NOT boiling them.
Since then, I have shared with you a recipe for Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon, as well as this recipe for Garlic Brown Butter Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Carrots. We also have a recipe for Creamy Cheesy Brussels Sprouts with Bacon, and many more.
My obsession is alive and thriving.
HOW TO MAKE THESE ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS
These Honey Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts are very easy to prepare and they will be gone as soon as they hit the table. The brussels sprouts should be brown and crispy paired with the sweetness of the honey and balsamic glaze. Here is how to make perfectly roasted brussel sprouts:
- We will first preheat our ovens to 400F.
- Then, we are going to cut the bottoms off the brussels sprouts and remove the outer leaves. IF your brussels sprouts are large, cut them in half.
- We will then combine olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and pour over the brussels sprouts.
- Spread the brussels sprouts over a sheet pan and roast for 30 minutes, or until crispy and tender.
- In the meantime, we will prepare the honey balsamic glaze by combining honey, white balsamic vinegar, and brown sugar in a saucepan. You’ll want to bring that mixture to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, or until thickened.
- Once the brussels sprouts are done, pour the honey balsamic glaze over them; toss to combine and serve with freshly shaved parmesan cheese.
See how easy it is to make perfect roasted brussels sprouts?! With this basic technique for crunchy, salty, and sweet sprouts, you’ll have everyone begging for seconds.
Also, caution! These brussels sprouts are addictive! It is SO hard not to eat all of them, all on your own. You shall see.

I modified the recipe a little. I fried up bacon and in the bacon grease I sauteed the garlic. I then used the bacon grease in place of the olive oil. Instead of honey, I used “Mike’s Hot Honey”. I didn’t have white balsamic so used regular balsamic. Came out fantastic!
That’s great! I am very glad you enjoyed it! Thank YOU! 🙂
These were wonderful. I started with a little less honey as I didn’t want too sweet and just added honey to taste. Good way to serve Brussels to someone who claims to not like them. Will make again. We had pork loin with these and we were all dipping the pork on the sauce!
Hi! Was just wondering If I can make the glaze ahead of time? Thanks!
HI! I think that should be OK, but you might have to warm it up a little before tossing it in with the Brussel sprouts, just so it spreads nicely over everything.
Next time I plan to prepare the sauce while the meat is cooking. To prevent having to heat the balsamic in the microwave. Trying to keep it nice and fresh!
Can you use regular balsamic vinegar? I’ve never heard of white balsamic vinegar
Sorry I see that someone else asked the same question…disregard
Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe. I have always liked brussel sprouts but never tried making it at home….well these are amazing and the family approves. Printing out the recipe to add to my favorites!
I love sprouts, but have only ever eaten them as a boiled vegetable with a roast dinner (preferably Christmas dinner LOL). I wouldn’t have ever thought to use them in this way – what a brilliant recipe, I will have to try it!
Can I use regular balsamic vinegar instead of white?
Hi! Yes you can, but the dark balsamic is sweeter and a little more syrupy. The white balsamic has a cleaner, not so vinegary aftertaste.
That glaze! OMG! I need to try these immediately.
Roasted brussels are one of my favorites! These look so caramelized and delicious!
Looks like my favorite way to cook brussels sprouts!

Looks so addicting! This will surely a big hit on our table, can’t wait to try!
Looks incredibly delicious! Such a tasty and flavorful recipe, just perfect!
