Ingredients & Substitutions
Brussels sprouts are so underrated! When you roast them, they become nutty and sweet, especially with the maple syrup. If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use whole grain mustard for a different texture. Just keep in mind that it’ll be a bit chunkier.
Tips & Notes
- •I love to double the glaze and use it as a dressing for salads later in the week.
- •Don’t skip the sesame seeds; they add a lovely crunch that elevates the dish.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes, I’ll throw in some chopped pecans for added texture and flavor.
- •If I’m feeling adventurous, a splash of balsamic vinegar in the glaze gives a nice twist.
Storage & Freezing
These Brussels sprouts are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for about 2-3 days. Just reheat them in the oven to get that crispy texture back!

Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This is the perfect temperature for roasting those Brussels sprouts to crispy perfection.
- 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. This will create a delicious glaze that will coat the Brussels sprouts.
- 3
Add the halved Brussels sprouts to the bowl and toss them in the glaze until they’re well coated. Make sure every sprout gets a good soak in that sweet and tangy goodness.
- 4
Spread the Brussels sprouts out in a single layer on a baking sheet. You want them to have some space to get crispy.
- 5
Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, tossing them halfway through. They should be golden brown and tender when done.
- 6
Once they’re out of the oven, sprinkle with sesame seeds for a bit of crunch and serve warm. Enjoy!
