Ingredients
Method
- Heat oven to 425°F (220°C). On a baking sheet, toss halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until coated.
- Arrange cut side down in a single layer. Roast 20 minutes, flip, then roast another 5 to 10 minutes until deeply browned and fork-tender.
- Whisk maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, and garlic if using. Drizzle over hot sprouts, toss, and roast 2 to 3 minutes more until the glaze bubbles and sticks.
- Transfer to a serving plate, top with pecans if desired, and serve immediately with a pinch of flaky salt.
Notes
For a thicker, more concentrated glaze, simmer the maple syrup and balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan for 2 minutes before whisking in the garlic, then pour over the roasted sprouts.
