Dietary Adjustments

To keep the dish gluten‑free, ensure the soy sauce is certified gluten‑free or substitute with tamari. For a vegan version, swap honey for maple syrup and use a plant‑based oil such as avocado oil. Keto dieters can reduce the honey to a teaspoon and add a dash of erythritol for sweetness.

Serving Suggestions

Serve the sprouts alongside fluffy scrambled eggs, a warm croissant, or a light quinoa salad. They also make a vibrant topping for avocado toast or a flavorful addition to a brunch charcuterie board.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1½ pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
2 tablespoons extra‑virgin olive oil

Honey‑Garlic Glaze

3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon soy sauce (low‑sodium)
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard

Seasonings & Garnish

¼ teaspoon red‑pepper flakes (optional)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
¼ cup sliced toasted almonds

Instructions

Roasting

Preheat the Oven. Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment. A hot oven jump‑starts caramelization, giving the sprouts a beautiful golden edge.
Coat the Sprouts. In a large bowl, toss the halved sprouts with olive oil, salt, pepper, and red‑pepper flakes if using. Add half of the honey‑garlic glaze and stir until every piece is evenly coated.
Arrange for Even Cooking. Spread the sprouts cut‑side down on the prepared sheet, ensuring they’re not crowded. Overcrowding creates steam, which prevents browning.
Roast Until Caramelized. Place the pan in the oven and roast for 20‑22 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through. The edges should turn deep amber while the centers stay tender.
Finish with a Broil. Drizzle the remaining glaze over the roasted sprouts, then switch the oven to broil for 2‑3 minutes. Watch closely; you want a glossy, slightly charred finish, not burnt.
