These honey balsamic Brussels sprouts get perfectly caramelized in a hot oven, turning crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, with just the right balance of sweet, tangy, and savory.
Step 1: Preheat the Oven & Pan - Preheat your oven to 400°F with the baking sheet inside. Starting with a hot pan helps the sprouts caramelize instead of steaming.
Step 2: Prep the Brussels Sprouts - Wash and thoroughly dry your sprouts. Remove any loose leaves, trim the ends, and slice each sprout in half lengthwise, cutting through the stem so they stay intact.
Step 3: Season - Add the sprouts to a large mixing bowl and drizzle in the avocado oil. Sprinkle over the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and white pepper. Add the balsamic vinegar and honey. Toss well until everything is evenly coated.
Step 4: Roast - Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven. Give it a quick spray with avocado oil, then arrange the Brussels sprouts cut-side down. Roast for 25–30 minutes, or until the undersides are caramelized and crisp and the centers are tender.
Step 5: Serve - Drizzle with a little extra balsamic glaze if you want a richer finish. Serve warm
