How To Make These Roasted Brussels Sprouts And Carrots
This one time… I wanted to faceplant into my Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots. Honestly. I think I make those carrots thrice a month, at the least. But since I have a very deep love for brussels sprouts, too… and garlic and butter… I decided to marry those 4-ish things together in a pan and enjoy it all in one single bite.
This recipe is basic and super simple, and it involves browning some butter, tossing a bunch of garlic in it, and then bathing your veggies with it. About 30 to 35 minutes later, you’ll be able to serve it to yourself and realize just how much you love your vegetables.
They are a tad sweet, a bit savory, of course buttery, garlicky, and crisp-tender. It’s the perfect veg side dish, you’ll see.
Tips For Making These Roasted Vegetables
Important step to remember is to cut up the carrots smaller so that they will cook evenly and at the same time as the brussels sprouts. My sprouts were muuuuch smaller than usual, which is why the carrots look huge, but trust me, they were cut in about 1-inch chunks.
But seriously, you guys, once they are done, they are just so so so good. Now, please take a fork to them and eat ’em up!
Want some honey with those carrots? Well… then… make my Honey Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots.
ENJOY!

Just eating it now. Absolutely wonderful!!! And I am not a Brussel sprout fan
That’s great! I am very glad you enjoyed it! Thank YOU! 🙂
Would these be ok to make a couple days ahead of time? We are heading to the in-laws for Thanksgiving and I want to bring this but can’t cook it there.
I’d say yes because we’ve had these as leftovers and they were just fine. You will need to store them in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge until you’re ready to go.
I’m wondering if you put the browned butter on before you cook the veggies, does it have a tendency to burn? I’m wondering the because the butter will be cooked well first then in the oven for at least a half hour(I usually roast my veggies a bit longer).
I would like to know if it is possible to use frozen brussel sprouts in this recipe. Do you think it would be necessaary to defrost them first?
I would say to first defrost only because of the water that they will release… it will water-down the flavors.
This looks really flavorful! Perfect to try this weekend!
