When I say this is the best way to make roasted Brussels sprouts, I mean it. Use this method for future Brussels sprout success in your oven.

This super simple way to cook Brussels sprouts will transform this vegetable from, “meh” to “Yeah!” It’s all about getting as much crisp as possible in my opinion. 

This isn’t necessarily a recipe (although I’ll provide a guided one below) but more of a method that I use.

To start, slice the stem off the Brussels sprout. Then slice it into about 1/4 inch pieces. lots of little leaves will flake off in the process. Do not discard those. They are the BEST!

Sliced Brussels Sprouts

Toss your sliced Brussels sprouts (and leaves) with some olive oil and kosher salt.

Lay them out on a baking sheet, making sure to spread them out evenly.

Bake them at 450 for about 15 minutes, giving them a flip halfway through cooking time.

Make sure to eat them immediately. That delicious crisp won’t last too long.

    LOVE making Brussels this way. My kids and I fight over the crispy “chips” that come from roasting in the oven.

    Shopping for this recipe. About how many pounds would you say 2 cups Brussels sprouts is? Thanks!

      I’d guess roughly a pound? I wouldn’t get too caught up on the exact measurements for this though. It’s more the method that makes the difference!
