Can I Reheat Roasted Brussels Sprouts?

While Brussels are at their best right out of the oven, this recipe can be reheated fairly well with a toaster oven or air fryer. Microwaving will soften the Brussels while overcooking the bacon.

How Do I Make My Brussels Sprouts Extra Crispy?

* Roast them at a high temperature in a hot oven. This is why we do 450°F. * Peel lots of outer leaves off and let them get charred. * Make sure the Brussels are turned face down and bake them on the lowest rack. * Make sure there is a lot of room on the baking sheet. Overcrowding will steam them instead of roasting--preventing them from getting crispy.

Can I make roasted Brussels spouts in advance?

This recipe is best served fresh. Not prepped in advance. Reason is, the Brussels will lose their crisp the longer they sit out.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 450°F.
Cut the roots off of the Brussels and slice them in half.
Place the Brussels sprouts in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle uncooked bacon pieces over the sprouts and toss with your hands. Spread out in a single layer on a baking sheet, making sure the Brussels sprouts are cut side down.
Roast the Brussels sprouts for 15 minutes, then shake the pan or flip them. Roast for another 5 minutes or so, until they start to brown and the bacon is crispy. Taste and season with more salt and pepper, as needed. Serve hot.

Notes/Tips

Peel lots of outer leaves off and let them get charred. These are my favorite part!
Make sure the Brussels are turned face down and bake them on the lowest rack.
