Miso-Roasted Brussels Sprouts - Vegan recipe hero image

Growing up, Brussels sprouts were always the last thing on my plate, but when I discovered miso, everything changed.

The savory, slightly sweet flavor transforms these little green gems into something extraordinary!

I love serving these as a side dish, but honestly, I could eat them straight from the oven.

Pro tip: the more caramelization, the better!

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • ✓No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • ✓Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike

Ingredients & Substitutions

Miso is a fantastic ingredient that adds depth to dishes. If you can’t find miso paste, you might try tahini or almond vegan butter in a pinch, but the flavor will definitely change. Also, feel free to swap out the maple syrup for agave if that’s what you have on hand.

Tips & Notes

  • •I love to double the recipe and have leftovers for lunch the next day. They taste amazing cold too!
  • •Sometimes, I add a sprinkle of nutritional yeast for a cheesy twist!

Recipe Variations

  • •If you're feeling adventurous, toss in some sliced almonds or walnuts for added crunch.
  • •A splash of lemon juice just before serving brings a lovely brightness to the dish.

Storage & Freezing

These Brussels sprouts are best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just reheat them in the oven or a skillet to get that crispy texture back.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen Brussels sprouts?

You can, but fresh ones have a better texture and flavor. If using frozen, make sure to thaw and drain them well before roasting.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high heat is essential for getting those delicious crispy edges.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, miso paste, maple syrup, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until it's smooth and well mixed.

  3. 3

    Add the halved Brussels sprouts to the bowl and toss them in the miso mixture until they're evenly coated. This is where the magic happens!

  4. 4

    Spread the Brussels sprouts onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Make sure they’re not crowded, or they won’t roast properly.

  5. 5

    Roast in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, tossing halfway through. You want them golden-brown and crispy.

  6. 6

    Once done, remove from the oven and sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve warm and enjoy!
